Quick tips for authoring articles

Follow these simple instructions when submitting articles to davisvanguard.org:

  1. First fill out your title. This should be descriptive enough to make readers want to click on your article. Assume that they have not read any of your other articles.
  2. All user articles are initially published to the “All Community Blogs”. The editor reserves the right to transfer any blogs to the standard news sections at any time.
  3. After you right your article, you can either save the article for later editing or publish it immediately.
  4. Please do not paste Word documents directly into the editor box. First, copy from Word and paste into a simple text editor like Wordpad, Notepad, or Textedit. Then copy from your simple text editor and paste into this website’s editor below. This will remove all of the extra formatting Word adds without your knowledge.
