Suggestion Discussion: A mahalo page standards page?

The minimum requirements are listed here: mahalo.com/mahalo-page-management-guide In short, every basic Mahalo Topic Page should have: 300 words of original content. 5 fast facts Citations to support facts. Minimum of one.In addition, I will not accept a task if it does not clearly "answer the question" presented or if there are more grammar, spelling or formatting problems then I want to fix.

How To's are a little different. They must contain at least 200 words per step across 3 steps and a guide note. I personally value writing above all else.

If someone forgets to add related pages, or inlink, etc, I will fix those things rather than reject the article. I don't believe in rejecting tasks to "teach" people how to do things. I will accept the article, fix the problem and then talk with the author directly to ensure that the problem doesn't happen again.

@rpak is the QC Manager. He may be able to clarify or explain this topic a little better. He is certainly the best source of information when it comes to questions about QC'ing.

I bet that if you send him a direct question or e-mail that he will answer very quickly.

I agree having something somewhere would be good. In addition to the *must have stuff* I was just thinking as I QC today it would be good somehow for the general public to know the things that are getting corrected the most often. For instance, lately it seems that Title Case is rarely used on step titles and a lot of people are not giving Video titles.

These are things that can be fixed during QC and told to the writer during feedback but it would be nice if there was an overall review for folks every once in a while so they knew what's being fixed in general.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
