Is this allowed or will it cause copyright trouble for MN?

I subscribe to The Times & wanted to copy & post an article from there on a thread I was on.

I haven't done so & have PM'd it to a couple of people, but I wondered if I could have don this?

Hello

We tend to delete these when they're reported to us, because posting up an entire article from a paywalled paper/publication isn't really 'fair use' in copyright terms. It's OK to quote a few lines, but if we receive a complaint about C+Ping the entire article we do take the post down.
