When do you take notes on an article?

I take notes on many of the articles I read, but when do you decide an article is worth taking notes vs. not.

When reading something, if one gets the aha moments, it is time to take notes.

Whenever I see something insightful that I want to share with someone, instead of linking to the article, I copy and paste just the meat into my pastebin-like website.
