* I'm not going to get into any discussion where abd is involved, because I do not have an indefintie amount of time and Abd is completely incapable of accepting any result not to his liking. He has decided to mount a crusade on behalf of the owner of lenr-canr.org. I have no idea why.

::::Lovely to hear from you! I have spent the past two-and-a-bit years working at incredibly high stress for a hospital.

*:I'm interested in the reasons why you view the site with suspicion. If there is any significant reason to think the work might be a copyright violation, please tell me what it is; I may be willing to investigate. It's my understanding that the only problem was that the site had added an editorial introduction, clearly marked as such, to the beginning of a different work; that isn't a reason not to link to this work. <span style="color:Green; font-size:13pt;">☺</span>] (]) 23:32, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

::* The site is an advocacy vehicle for the fringe science topic of cold fusion. It claims to be a "library" but includes, for example, editorialised versions of the sources it claims to represent fairly. The site owner, Jed Rothwell, was a major factor in the cold fusion article's decline from FA to POV nonsense, and a lot of the material on there is copyright (as every piece of published material always is) but with no evidence of copyright release. Rothwell has spent years promoting the site on Misplaced Pages. It is not a reliable source, nor is it an acceptable source of "convenience copies" due to the extensive evidence posted in the past of playing fast and loose with copyright. Example: papers copyright Reed Elsevier, a company which has declined every request of which I am aware to allow third-party websites to republish full text. If Fleischmann has written a commentary and publishes it on his website then we can certainly link to it, if there is independent evidence of its significance, but in this case we have the cold fusion equivalent of the Discovery Institute being advanced as a source. Its goals and practices are fundamentally incompatible with ours. <b>]</b> <small>(])</small> 13:39, 21 March 2009 (UTC)

:::External sites do not have to conform to a NPOV policy in order for us to link to a convenience copy there of a reference. The site is not being cited as a reliable source, but used as a provider of a convenience copy of the work. I haven't seen any such evidence of "playing fast and loose with copyright"; please provide diff links to where the evidence was posted. As far as I'm aware, people reprinting copyrighted material or posting it on the web don't usually display evidence of permission but simply state that it's printed or posted with permission (and I believe Misplaced Pages follows this same practice when permission has been emailed to permissions-en). If a copyright holder has turned down some permission requests I don't see that as being evidence that they turned down other permission requests; besides, you haven't specified the particular requests you're aware of. If the work in question is not copyrighted by Elsevier then concerns related to Elsevier seem irrelevant to linking to this convenience copy of the reference.

Lovely to hear from you! I have spent the past two-and-a-bit years working at incredibly high stress for a hospital. In that time I have retired around 80% of their legacy application and server estate, instituted architectural guidelines and piloted the process for demand review, reduced the measured risk burden by around 80%, instituted objective risk monitoring using Tenable, and I've just proposed (and had accepted) a plan to remediate or mitigate most of the rest.
