Hi

as this forum often gets many posts with useful info from research papers, news articles and a whole lot more, I do need to draw your attention to a thread running on CFF regarding the correct way to post this material without infringing copyright.

it is real important to abide by this as we get complaints from authors, publications etc when copyrighted material is incorrectly sourced etc. and especially when entire articles are copied over

here is Doc's thread on CFF
http://neurotalk.psychcentral.com/thread37384.html



basic requirements mean you should:
1/
always cite the source and author

2/
give a URL link to the source wherever possible

3/
dont copy and paste the WHOLE piece, but instead give only the abstract, or snips from the piece and then the link so that others can follow it to read the whole

much appreciation for everyone's co-operation on this

Cheri
