Have someone review your article

• It is always a good idea to have someone review your article.
• Receiving a second opinion might help to discover aspects of topic that were out of your radar.
  • Use the share operation that is available on every page to invite other users for review.

Publish your article

Accept feedback

• This site provides some mechanism for ratings and surveys.
• Feedback is not necessarily about receiving applause. Never take a negative feedback personal and never discuss with posters.
  • Feedback presents someone's perception of an article and therefore is neither right nor wrong. 
  • Instead, try to understand what problem has been perceived and if you could accept to modify your article to comply with the poster's perception.

Never stop improving

• So you think you're done having received some feedback on your article? Definitely not.
• Articles tend to become inaccurate and even obsolete by ageing.
