Which age would you prefer to live in?- The information age or The Sundering?

OK so the senior members have chatted about this and we've had a few thoughts.

1) It is ok to use OA material but express permission should be asked for first. In your thread it isn't clear that you were going to copy OA content and host it elsewhere, if you had mentioned that it would have likely got a response.

2) When using OA material you should credit it with a clear disclaimer at the start of every article. Like this:

This material appropriated from the Orion's Arm Universe Project (http://www.orionsarm.com). Used with permission.

3) If you are going to adapt material you should make an effort to not harm the image of the site. For example: your Federation of OAsisa seems to have no relation to the first fed at all, despite having several copies of OA content as support material. This is problematic as someone reading your entry might ascribe it to us. A disclaimer may be needed to make it clear that this is inspired by OA, not endorsed by it.

Ok, thank you. I will fix the dispatches or delete them.
