WARNING

It's easy to get stuck on the linguistics and naming. You can think about it for hours while in the land. While sitting in front of a computer your time is better spent typing, not thinking about increasing the clarity. Just get it out, then you can edit.

​

No Acronyms

Write complete sentences.

Point form is lazy. Think about all the coding documentation which is not easy to read. Too formal, too concise, humans don't process language like computers, point of view matters.

​

Should "via" be used as natural language? "Get to the next page via the link at the bottom of the page"

Footnotes ​

Every quotation should have a citation in footnote
