Editorial Guidelines
These guidelines will help you understand what we accept and do not accept for article, forum and photographic submissions.

We accept:

• Articles, photographs and Forum submissions where there is reference to the local area including the people, clubs, businesses and organisations based in the local area. See the street map for the area we cover. Articles, photographs and Forum submissions must be your own work.

We do not accept:

• Content that is unlawful, abusive, harassing, indecent, sexually suggestive, offensive or otherwise objectionable.
• Unsubstantiated allegations. Content that damages the "fame, reputation and honour" of an individual, group, business or organisation by way of identifying them directly or indirectly and where we have no way of knowing that the fact of the matter is true.
• Forum submission in CAPITAL LETTERS (shouting).
• Forum submission that insults people (flaming).
• Links to websites with no reference to the local area (spamming). These are automatically rejected by our script because of the serious nature of this activity on the Internet where repeated submissions are common. A genuine submission to the forum can contain a relevant link by removing the "http://" part of the URL.
• Forum submission to start trouble or an argument for its own end (trolling).
• Comments on a persons spelling ability.
• Personal information such as another persons present address. You can include your own personal details such as your email address or telephone number but please be aware that it becomes public information and you should exercise caution when deciding to disclose your personal information.
• Copyrighted material that is not your own work such as newspaper articles.
• Content likely to incite crime or disorder.
• Content containing swearwords. These will automatically be edited in the forum by script to "****". This has the undesirable effect of editing part of a legitimate word.
• Content promoting a particular belief.
• Reply that is off-topic from the original message.

Comments about moderation must be made by e-mail, not in the forum.
