Ok, here is going to be the rules as far as quoting is concerned.

DO NOT quote entire articles.
DO post where the information posted came from, preferably a link to the original source.
DO post your own thoughts, comments, or questions in addition to the quoted content.
DO NOT quote directly from Wikipedia without checking the information.
DO NOT quote more than 3 or 4 paragraphs of the text, link to the source for more.

Specific rules for quoting Stars and Stripes

Sir,

{Removed... not relevant to this topic}

First off, let me say that you can take a few sentences or a paragraph or two from our stories and post on your site with a link to the full story on our site without any problem. If that helps bring more readers to our site, so much the better. We do ask that you not reprint our stories in full or substantial lengths, or the photographs, because that does bring up copyright issues and our attorneys frown on that. But a paragraph and a link is good promotion for us and content for you.

Best of luck to you in your endeavor.
