When posting information that is originally from another source you must follow the following guidelines.

1. When quoting something verbatim, make use of quotes. Either "" or the BBCode quote tag. You need to make it clear that what you are posting is a quote and not your own words.
2. If your source is a web site, provide a link to the page where you got the information.
3. Quotes are limited to 3-4 sentences MAXIMUM. This is also for your own protection. Longer quotes or un-attributed quotes may be considered copyright infringement and/or plagiarism.
