Style

资本化

  • 当提到 精明的新人, 纪事报, or ATA编年史,请使用大写和斜体. 还要大写以下术语:ATA, 永利登录网址, 关联(当参考ATA时), ATA年会, ATA董事会, 和ATA董事会.
  • Uppercase the words Division, Committee, 和 Chapter only when used as part of an official title (e.g. “西班牙语部”; “该部门最近的活动包括……”). Uppercase ATA position titles only when preceding a name (e.g. “当选总统科琳·麦凯”; “当选总统发表了演讲”).
  • Do not capitalize academic degrees unless referring to the specific name of the degree (e.g. “水下篮子编织理学硕士”; “he received his master’s degree from Virginia Tech”).
  • Capitalize job titles only when they precede a person’s name (e.g. “巫师部经理杰米·哈茨”; “魔法部经理吩咐学生们……”).

标点符号

  • Place a comma before the conjunction joining the last two items in a series.

狮子、老虎和熊——哦,天哪!

  • 当用破折号代替逗号时, 括号, 或冒号, use the em dash (ctrl+alt+minus) rather than the en dash (ctrl+minus).

Owls—whose eyes are nearly immobile—must swivel their heads in order to see.

  • 加上逗号和句号 内部 结束引号.

“不要吃那支蜡笔.”

  • 放置冒号和分号 结束引号.

She had told him, “We can’t play baseball today”; however, this was incorrect.

  • 放置感叹号和问号 内部 结束引号 only if they are part of the matter being quoted.

“不要靠近蝙蝠洞!他喊道.

但你告诉我不要“狼吞虎咽”!

可读性

  • 避免大段, 把文本分成小段, 项目符号列表, 或者有编号的列表. 块报价, 表, 和短段落与具体, clear headings can also help to organize your writing more effectively.
  • 使用 the "Bottom Line Up Front" method for writing paragraphs; this means that the most important information should be at the start of the paragraph, because readers may skip the rest of your paragraph due to short online attention span.
  • 使用 大胆的斜体 to emphasize key words 和 ideas; introduce a bulleted  list; introduce new terms; 和 give short examples. 使用这些字体格式时要保持一致. Do not underline text except to indicate a hyperlink.
  • Avoid run-on sentences 和 sentence fragments (unless the latter is called for by the nature of the article).
  • 使用缩写时, always spell out the full term the first time it is used, followed by the acronym or abbreviation in 括号 (e.g. “精明的新人 (听)”). In subsequent occurrences of the term, use the acronym. Commonly-used acronyms like FBI, ATA, GPS, 和 so forth do not need to be spelled out.

一般

  • 将所有博客名称斜体化.
  • Contractions are acceptable as long as they are not used in excess 和 suit the style of the article.
  • Hyperlinks are acceptable 和 even encouraged for some posts in order to build credibility 和 help your readers learn more. Be sure to include the link in-text with a description of what will be found at the link as the text (e.g. "More information about sloths can also be found in 这篇国家地理的文章."
  • Spell out numbers from one to ten; for all other numbers, use the numerical iteration.

他吃了四个披萨.

她吃了26个披萨.

  • 使用 US English conventions 除非这篇文章是重新写的 that already uses UK or other English conventions. Guest authors are asked to write new content with US English spelling 和 grammar (e.g. “社会化”而不是“社会化”); 梅里亚姆-韦伯斯特.com 用于拼写参考.
  • 使用 active voice, rather than passive voice, whenever possible.

阿方索受到所有人的爱戴.

每个人都喜欢阿方索.

  • Style considerations not discussed here will be at the discretion of the author 和 ultimately the TSN team; the team’s style decisions will generally be based on the Chicago Manual of Style.
