"We are the News": Eight tips for creating notable posts
Draft 1, 2-28-19
1. Remember the five "W"s: ''Who, What, When, Where, Why/how.''
These are reporting basics. DATES are critical; plz always include.
2. Use RED TEXT & bold to call out notables.
This REALLY helps bakers locate worthy posts & avoid eye strain.
3. List article and video TITLES not just links.
Sauce on vids is usually non-existent, at least include a date + summary.
4. For tweets, copypasta the text (don't just cap them).
Qresear.ch is a great resource, but it's 100% text.
5. Use your words (not just diagrams) to describe your work on Q proofs, etc .
If you can't describe it, how is baker supposed to?
6. ''DATES, DATES, DATES.''
Shills post old but jazzy news, then cry 'clown baker' if notabled. Defeat them with dates.
7. If post is part of an ongoing dig, include the DIG name.
Bakers are on the lookout but don't know every dig.
8. Got an Apple phone with JPEG capture default? Then post text instead (links, title, date).
Easiest way to avoid the hassle of converting to PNG.
Not trying to boss anons around but just to support our work. Thoughts?
