2 What requires written permission

1. 1Republishing an article in full or in substantial part, in any language.
2. 2Systematic reuse: scraping, syndication, database inclusion, or republishing our work on a schedule.
3. 3Use of our text or data to train machine learning systems.
4. 4Use of photographs or graphics that appear on this site. Many are licensed to us and are not ours to pass on.

Requests go to the same address with Republishing in the subject line, with the piece you want, where it will appear, and when.

3 What we ask of any reuse

Do not edit a quotation in a way that changes its meaning, present our coverage as your own, or strip the publication date. If we correct an article you have quoted, and the correction touches what you quoted, we ask that you carry the correction too; the corrections log is public precisely so that this is checkable.

4 Credit form
