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.
