Articles: All text must be written in third person.
Letters to the Editor and Editorials: First person may be used, but third person remains the recommended guideline.
Abbreviations should be avoided. (Common abbreviations may be acceptable in a long article but must be spelled out and followed immediately by the abbreviation in parentheses the first time it is used.)
Lists, Bullet Points, and Subheads should be avoided. Long lists of names, materials, phone numbers, etc. do not meet the criteria of a news article and therefore will be edited.
