For those who didn't already know that pasting entire articles and/or not providing links to copy/pasted text was poor netiquette:

SUMMARIZE THE PART OF THE ARTICLE THAT YOU FOUND INTERESTING, I.E. WHY ARE YOU POSTING THIS?
PROVIDE YOUR OWN PERSONAL REFLECTIONS, IN YOUR OWN WORDS, DESCRIBING YOUR THOUGHTS ON THE SUBJECT
IF NECESSARY, QUOTE SMALL BITS OF THE ARTICLE (A SENTENCE OR TWO) THAT DIRECTLY RELATE TO YOUR OWN, ORIGINAL POINT
ALWAYS PROVIDE A LINK TO THE ORIGINAL ARTICLE, SO THAT INTERESTED READERS (IF THERE ARE ANY) CAN READ MORE ABOUT IT
