[QUOTE="Kor, post: 7138635, member: 26281"] Here's another idea to help make it easier to reference the contents of the Unearthed Arcana material while perhaps not challenging any IP / Copyright protections. What if I just posted my glossary as a webpage, and then hyperlinked all the items to the corresponding PDF? I believe if I wrote and published an article about one of their PDF's, I can talk about the contents as long as I don't repeat the game mechanics: (i.e [I]The "Kill Everything" feat in the "New Combat Options" of the latest Unearthed Arcana article seems well balanced and will likely be a favored feat for all fighters[/I]). So for my idea, I would only be mentioning the name of the feat. Additionally, I would be referencing my source, as the hyperlink would go back to the official PDF. Although the above seems like an acceptable use to me, I suspect there might still be a concern, since I have not seen any websites that reference of the Spell names, Feat names, or Archetype names from any 5e source (other than those from the basic game). That tells me if people can't even post a list of available 5e archetypes from all the published sources, then likely my glossary doing the same thing from their free PDF's would also be restricted. I'm probably better off sending my proposed plan to WotC to confirm what is acceptable, but since there seems to be some very knowledgeable folks here, I thought I might throw the idea out here first before I bother them with it. Thanks. [/QUOTE]
