#1 Topic: News article information sources

Posted 1 February 2011 - 10:19am on Freeski Club UK

Hi dunx and scuk news posting crew.

Just wondering if you could post the sources of your news articles on their respective pages as sometimes it's handy to see where you gained this information from and also if there are more articles relating.

If it's direct information not off other sites, then it's worth just mentioning who it's from without a link or something along those lines.

What do you reckon?

The vast majority are either press releases, sourced direct or via a new agency (who we pay). If it is simply just lifted from another site, then we'll provide a link.

Any article in particular you wanted more info on?

Was actually the sixth Scottish ski area post. Always interested in new UK developments (as i feel increasing the facilities over here will bring snowsports to a wider audience bringing improvements all around) and since the article mentioned past interest and planning, was quite intrigued.

If it is from direct sources, maybe it's worth putting something like source: direct or mentioning what it was from, removing the idea that it could have been from an official site etc that could give more info.

Just an idea anyway. Cheers for the response dunx
