Originality
Posts should be written for this site first. Copied articles, rewritten pages without added value, spun text, and unattributed excerpts are not acceptable.
Useful content
Every published article should explain a real topic, answer a clear reader need, and contain enough detail to stand on its own. Placeholder posts, doorway pages, repeated summaries, and pages made mainly for ads should not be published.
Sources and fair use
When a post depends on external facts, tools, claims, or research, it should link to reliable sources and add explanation, testing, review, or commentary. Short quotes may be used only when they support the article and are clearly attributed.
Corrections
If a material error is found, the article should be corrected and the updated date should be used when the change affects readers.
Advertising separation
Ads must not be placed where they obscure content, imitate navigation, encourage accidental clicks, or outnumber the publisher content on a page.
