Editing Publisher:Style-guide (section)

== General Document Formatting==
Text submissions should be received as '''.docx''' , '''Markdown''' or '''Mediawiki syntax''' (if writing on a wiki).

Most of what follows is specific to .docx, yet the same text structure and hierarchy applies to Markdown or Mediawiki. 

'''It is fundamental to format the text using Word/LibreOffice Styles''' . (See [https://support.office.com/en-nz/article/Style-basics-in-Word-d382f84d-5c38-4444-98a5-9cbb6ede1ba4 Style basics in Word tutorial] or [https://help.libreoffice.org/Writer/Styles_in_Writer Styles in LibreOffice Writer tutorial] )

* The '''whole text''' should have '''Normal''' style as default (normally this is the default when writing).
* The '''Author's name''' should have '''Normal''' style and be in a paragraph following the Title.
* Article's '''Title''' should have '''Header 1'''

* Article's '''Sections''' should have '''Header 2'''
* Article's '''Subsections''' should have '''Header 3''' style.
* Short quotations use single quotation marks.
* '''Long quotes or Blockquotes''' are create by '''indenting the whole blockquote'''.

* '''Do not use tabs for paragraph breaks at any time, but a white space (hard return) between paragraphs'''.
* Add ''italics'' where needed (for proper names (see specific formatting below) references, emphasis on single words).
* Bold can be used, but NOT to create headings (emphasis on single words).
