Hi Everyone!

Recently we've had a number of issues with members posting copyrighted information- primarily in their blogs. The original authors have been contacting us, asking that their work be removed, or properly cited, or in some instances they want to be paid for the fact that someone else is using it.

I'm asking that you pass along this reminder to your teams:

If you are going to post something on the boards or in your blog that someone else has written, you need to credit the source. Our policy is that you can post a few sentences and then you need to link to the source so that people can read the rest of it. You should not be posting an entire article, for instance, and if you are going to post something you always need to cite it.

Thanks in advance for your cooperation and for spreading the word about this to your teams!!

Coach Jen

NEW - Points for re-reading articles

Below is a copy/paste from Coach Jen.

Hi Everyone!

Based on member feedback, we've made it so that you can now reset the articles you’ve read more than 6 months ago. To reset articles, you can go to Account/Email Preferences (http://www.sparkpeople.com/myspark/prefer

ence.asp) from your MyStart page, and scroll down on the Account tab to the Reset Articles section of the page. Click the Reset Articles button, agree to reset, and voila! You can now read the articles again and get more SparkPoints. Again, this will only allow you to re-read articles you read more than 6 months ago. Articles you have read less than six months ago will be left unchanged.

Resetting your articles will keep the SparkPoints you earn for previously reading articles. You will lose the checkmark next to any articles in the Resource Center that have been reset.

Enjoy!

Coach Jen
