Information (ie; cut & paste works) you directly acquire from elsewhere must be referenced just the same as if it is quoted from a story, as it is not deemed your own work & is considered plagiarism. If however it is your own words based on information you have read and is not directly "copied" from anywhere else, then that is perfectly ok! Please clarify if any of the above post is "copied" from elsewhere!
For example, if you cut & paste an article (or any part of an article) and have placed it within your post above, then accordingly you must provide the link or denote the source of where it came from.
Now, I suggest you read the "Terms of Use" (TOU) on this Forum and provide any links to your article (if in fact there are any) as requested in the first place, or your post will be moderated accordingly.
