Copying/Pasting full texts is frowned upon by the community.
Some tips to share content and add value:
- Using a few sentences from your source in “quotes.” Use HTML tags or Markdown.
- Linking to your source
- Include your own original thoughts and ideas on what you have shared.
Repeated copy/paste posts could be considered spam. Spam is discouraged by the community, and may result in action from the cheetah bot.

Thank You!
Thanks for the advice. I will strive to improve my posting habits. Cheetah bot was upvoting my post and I didn't properly consider pasting full texts, although I did include the link to the article and some comments. Thanks.
