Editing Signal Cartel Group Blog Submission Guidelines (section)

== How to submit your work? ==

With your first submission an email address will be needed for you to create your Contributor account (so your name can be set as the author).

==== To Post Newly-Written Original Material: ====

* Paste your draft into a Google Doc.
* When your draft is ready for review, send Katia Sae an EVEmail with the subject "GROUP BLOG SUBMISSION: NEW POST".
* Include a link that permits Katia to '''comment''' (NOT edit). Then we can collaborate as needed to get the post ready for prime time.

==== To Cross-Post From Your Blog: ====

* Send Katia Sae an EVEmail with the subject "GROUP BLOG SUBMISSION: BLOG X-POST".
* Include in the email a link to the original post and any other relevant info.
* Send ONE EVEmail per submitted x-post. Submit only a few gems, not your entire catalog of blog posts.
* When we publish your cross-post on our group blog, we will link to the original post to help drive traffic to your blog.

==== To Cross-Post From Our Forums: ====

* The post must have originally been authored by you.
* Consider whether the content is suitable for public view.
* If so, paste it into a Google Doc draft.
* In the draft, redact all names of non-Signal Cartel pilots unless you obtain permission from them to use their name in a public-facing post.
* If comments from other Signaleers add materially to the story, add them (with attribution) at the bottom your draft.
* When your draft is ready for review, send me an EVEmail with the subject "GROUP BLOG SUBMISSION: FORUM X-POST".
* Include a link that permits me to '''comment''' (NOT edit). Then we can collaborate as needed to get the post ready for prime time.

==== To Suggest Page or Menu Additions/Changes: ====

* EVEmail me with your suggestion.
* Subject line should be "SC Site Suggestion"

Note: '''Use the subject lines we've suggested here, not your creative take on them.''' That will help me to parse my inbox faster.

Over time, we expect to give regular contributors Contributor or Author privileges in WordPress, depending on the frequency and editorial quality of your posts. Eventually, we will consider giving Editor privileges to one or two trusted C2 members with demonstrated excellence in writing and editing.
