I am for layout a few instructions on the Rules page, just to make it clear where we stand, and what we can or cannot do.  I currently am going to Midle Tennessee State University, and like many other universities they pretty much hammer into the students how to write articles, what should be cited, what plagarism is...all that stuff.  So, in accordance with the Harbrace Manual, here's some suggestions for writing articles.

*When writing, use the sandbox over and over, clicking on the "preview" button to look at it without posting it.  The idea is to write, re-write, and re-write again, looking for correct grammar, spelling, and flow of thought.  If it reads good, then post it.

*When citing sources, write the name of the author and the page number in parenthesis at the end of the citation like this: (Smith, pg 12).  In a separate sub-heading at the bottom of the article labeled "References", write the source in the following order: author, title, publisher, city/state published, last copyright year: Smith, John R. ''Theory of Light'', Scribners, New York, 1977.  University professors stress the importance of doing just that.
