NEWS SITES AGREE TO MATERIAL REPRODUCTION TERMS OF USAGE
11:27, June 21, 2013
A number of internet news sites in Armenia have reached an agreement on
conditions regarding the reproduction of materials from other sources.
Recently, news site editors have complained that their source materials
(articles, photos, etc) have been widely reproduced without proper
authorization and/or reference.
The editors have agreed that from now on if they use the materials
of others they will list the name of the source in the first sentence
and provide a hyperlink to the site.
They also have agreed not to reproduce the article in its entirety
so that readers will be forced to refer to the original source if
they wish to read the full piece.
These same conditions will also apply to video materials.
In addition, the name of reporter/writer of the original piece must
be mentioned if and when such an author exists.
The following sites have agreed to the above terms of usage:
www.aravot.am, www.armlur.am, www.armversion.am, www.asekose.am,
www.galatv.am www.haynews.am, www.irates.am, www.panorama.am,
www.report.am, www.shamshyan.com, www.tert.am, www.times.am,
www.yerkir.am, www.168, www. 1lur.am
