Please respect others' works and copyrights

[Boat Design Net Moderator]

If the works of another are required to complete a thought of your own, please remember that you must have permission to post copyrighted works and that you should always give credit where credit is due.

If you reference a book, please note the title and author (and page number if known.) If you reference an article from another website or online newspaper or other online publication, please include the name of the author, the address of the web site and any other information that is appropriate.

Please remember that, as when writing a school paper, "fair use" does not allow you to copy and paste a complete article from another source. If you wish to include a full article from another source, you must have specific permission from the author and copyright holder.

Otherwise, instead, please provide a link to the other site and a relevant summary, but please do not copy and paste from other sites without getting specific permission from the author(s)/copyright holder(s) first.

Thanks very much.
