Copyright ethos & intentions

A lot of the con­tent of this site builds on the work of others. In some cases con­tent is news-like and is based enti­re­ly on the work of others, but is descri­bed here in our own con­text. In the­se cases we have cre­di­ted the ori­gi­nal sour­ce and pro­vi­ded a link to the sour­ce in the arti­cle. We would pre­fer not to have any of our con­tent copied, and instead have it lin­ked to, but if you do feel the need to publish con­tent that you have sour­ced from us plea­se pro­vi­de a rele­vant and appro­pria­te­ly pla­ced link back to the ori­gi­nal arti­cle. Our aim is to help the com­mu­ni­ty, but the web­ho­sting doe­sn’t pay for itself; con­se­quen­tly we are try­ing to stri­ke a balan­ce bet­ween sha­ring infor­ma­tion as broad­ly as pos­si­ble, whil­st ensu­ring peo­ple have access to the ori­gi­nal care­ful­ly-writ­ten con­tent on this site.

Hotlinks

We respect­ful­ly reque­st that peo­ple don’t hotlink to our down­loads. In most cases the­re are rele­vant arti­cles which accom­pa­ny them which would be more appro­pria­te to link to, or alter­na­ti­ve­ly the­re is the down­loads page. We belie­ve it is good nei­gh­bour­li­ness to pro­vi­de links to sites that have been hel­p­ful. Thanks.
