Regarding the posting of copyrighted articles: Is it legal to post them in their entirety or are they be limited to excerpts (like four paragraphs)?

I'd urge the latter, as I don't want to see NS sued for a copyright violation.

I'm sure if you quote sources, most don't mind.

NS wouldn't be sued. The posters are responsible for their own posts.

Got it.

The topic has been resolved and the author is happy.
