• ... that the proposed German ancillary copyright would impact sites using even short snippets of news articles?

• Comment: This should be of some interest to Wikipedians, though I need to add more about commentary regarding free publishing

• I think it should definitely be of great interest. The creation date checks out, the length (even omitting quotes) is well more than enough, and it is well sourced. My only complaint is that I don't like the sound of "impact" as a verb, in the hook. It sounds like managerspeak instead of English. May I suggest "affect" instead? —David Eppstein (talk) 01:11, 13 September 2012 (UTC)
