Well I don't mean we should have footnotes and bibliographies for all our posts, but when copying and pasting articles from somewhere I think it's a good idea.
Ayrton Senna: WDC 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991
McLaren: WCC 1974, 1984, 1985, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1998, 1999, 2007
McLaren: WDC 1974, 1976, 1984, 1985, 1986, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1998, 1999, 2008
I am not getting your point DD
And just a suggestion - If anyone quotes from a source maybe it would be good form to acknowledge this and state where the plagiarism is from. Maybe good form to credit authors for their work.
Also quoting the Times has more credence that the News of the World and quoting Wikipedia has much less than say autosport.com.
I will make a post on this in the suggestions section.
As an academic at Cornell University, DD really should know better. Tut tut tut.
Well, the level of discussion on this board has never struck me as of academic quality (especially as of late) and I really don't see a need to start referencing everything we post, but yeah, I'll be keeping an eye on myself with re. to that.
