Putting stuff on Commalg

For putting material on Commalg, please make sure that you do not violate any copyright agreements. Specifically:

Do not put up links to personal versions of restricted-access articles (for instance, if you download an article from JSTOR using a university access and have a personal version somewhere, do not link to that).
Do not copy texts or chunks of text from other sources, whether free or paid, unless the license explicitly allows you to do so. Use the appropriate Source template in case of a copyleft agreement.

In case you find any material on Commalg violating copyright or intellectual property rights, please post relevant comments on the talk page of the concerned articles and also on my talk page.
