Your headline (which you toned down from the original, to be fair) implied that we can't link to the Olympics website. This is, strictly speaking, wrong. His post suggested that you could do so, if you used text and not a copyrighted image. This is also, strictly speaking, wrong.

You are both wrong. I don't see how your sarcasm is justified.



Yes, and if I change to title more accurately to reflect exactly what the article says then it's likely to get changed by a moderator. I have become circumspect about using title that are accurate instead of the ones on the article.

I claim my response is just and proportionate because it appears that he read only the submission title, quoted from the article, and not the article itself. I believe if you're going to comment on these things and make pronouncements such as he did, then it is beholden upon you to actually read the article.
