Sunir, could you please explain the meaning of "Permission is granted to reference (link to), but not copy, content on this site unless within the bounds of "fair use." I ask this question, because some people might misinterpret this as: no author can ever reuse their own texts elsewhere in public. I suppose that this is a special case of what you understand under "fair use" in combination with "The site does not claim ownership of the content you contribute to Meatball."

You own your own words and can do anything you want with them. For other people wondering what they can do with text you wrote here, that is an expression of what their rights are by default. You have to make these things clear because most people don't understand how copyright works.
