I think he’s talking about the URL-based “must excerpt” list. I’m fine with strict adherence to that list, even if the OP owns, or believes he owns, the copyright, excerption is consistent and legally tidy.
Given developments in Internet copyright over the years, and particularly with an eye toward a favorable (to society) social media ruling (platform v. publisher), we may end up going strict excerpt and link across the board for legal reasons.
Fair enough, John.
Other John, I hereby withdraw my snark, with apologies.
Humble? please read John Robinson’s post #43.
