Editors

Style Guide for Editors
- Edit the document online or if you prefer, copy/paste from word processor. - Edit for readability, spelling and grammar. - Save the edited document - Notify me when you are done, by April 3 or sooner, if possible.
 * Edit lightly**:

NOTE: This year, the descriptions are listed in a table. If you have difficulty with editing it, copy the entire text to a word processor and then replace the entire table with your edited text. The final document doesn't need to be in a table. It should look like this example:

http://tcc2009.wikispaces.com/sample_description


 * Bold**, //italicized//, and __underlined__ text have to be added using the wikispaces editor. It won't transfer from your word processor.

- Click on General sessions in the menu column (left side) or click on the list assigned in my previous email message. - Click on the description to be edited. - To initiate editor, click on "Edit this page" on top, next to page title. - Upon clicking Save, enter your comments if anything needs to be noted for reference.
 * Descriptions**:

- Title in upper and lower case. - Paragraphs left justified, ragged right, no indentation, no hyphenation. - Extra line between paragraphs within description. - Single space between sentences. - Punctuation before closing quotation mark. - Use standard apostrophe (') and quotation mark ("). Do not use "smart quotes." - Capitalization: Internet (see other references below) - Lower case: blog, wiki, videoconference, podcasting, webcast, online, email - Mixed upper/lower case: iPod, PowerPoint, iPhone - Singular and plural: email
