Using the site

You use Minusumin as a reader free of charge. By using the site you
agree to use it in good faith — that you will not try to disrupt or
overload it, scrape data from it at scale, circumvent its security, or
impersonate the publication.

Content licence

Minusumin's original editorial content (article text, editorial
biographies, headlines, and metadata) is published all rights
reserved by Minusumin. You may:

• read and share articles freely;
• link to any page on the site;
• quote short excerpts with attribution — name the publication
  ("Minusumin") and include the article URL;

You may not:

Images

Images on the site come from different sources under different licences:

• AI-generated images — created by our pipeline for the article.
  Treat them as part of the article and follow the article licence
  described above.
• Wikipedia / Wikimedia Commons images — these carry a credit line
  beneath the image naming the author and a Creative Commons licence
  (for example CC BY-SA 4.0). To reuse such an image, follow the stated
  licence — usually this means crediting the author and keeping the same
  licence.
• Press-release or news-agency images — the credit line names the
  source; the source's own terms apply.

If in doubt, ask before reusing via the contact page.
