GameInformer's May 2012 issue provides exclusive content for their digital subscribers. From what I heard, the contents are exclusive screenshots and concept arts. Since this content is exclusive only to digital subscribers, it is not for Halopedia to begin hosting such content. In fact, this would (not could) constitute as a significant infringement for depriving GameInformer of the potential profits they could have made. This applies also to scans of the magazine (for digital subscribers, screencapture of their digital magazine). We want this wiki to be as legal as it can be (note, the internet is taking quite a beating from copyright lobbyists all around the world and it is not winning).

Fair use does not apply. Don't even go there. This project page on copyright gives hints on what is legal, what is fair use, and what is not both. Yeah... hate me.— subtank 08:46, 11 April 2012 (EDT)
