1. Keep the post and pictures on the topic.
2. Do not generalize, including groups of people unless it will benefit the article. If there is not facts or data to back a section up, then it doesn't belong in the article.
3. Cite sources within the text. If the article contains scientific facts, they should be cited within the text and not just listed at the end.
4. Keep it concise and check grammar. Don't get marked for cleanup like this article.
5. When using uncommon abbreviations: explain it first, then feel free to use it with occasional reminders. It can get very frustrating in a long article when you can't remember what repeated abbreviations stand for.
6. Do not use an ellipsis unless quoting information.
7. Keep language easy to understand. This article has a phrase that may leave a reader going, "huh?"
8. Sources that are personal opinions may not be reliable and should not be used. A blog is not a reliable source on current events or scientific facts.
9. Be objective. Don't be opinionated. Don't display a person bias.
10. Read what others have posted and don't repeat/ contradict (without facttual backing) other parts of the article.
