Originality and Editorial Notes 2

Hi all.
I hope everyone is doing well.
I have a few more points on the articles I'm proofing, but prior to that I'd like to say something about originality. A couple of days ago I was proof reading a few articles and discovered that certain parts of them were taken from existing sites on the net. Of course the articles were not accepted (to say the least) but I feel it is highly important to stress a point on the matter. If we did put content that was taken from another website it might damage us and our sites. We would be liable for copyright lawsuits and that's just the beginning.
So, I strongly urge you all to refrain from this completely.

Now that that's out of the way, I have some more comments on the articles:

• The plural form of person is people. Do not use "persons" unless in formal or derogatory use. (Better to avoid this word altogether) (Mihaela)
• Don't use an inverted Tier-1 keyword (e.g.: "tattooed joker" in "Joker Tattoos") – one of our aims is to appease the search engines, and we don't know how this is regarded so we would prefer to avoid the risk. (You can of course use the words of a certain primary keyword in any order you wish, so long as it does NOT become an inverted Primary or Tier-1).
• Please pay attention to grammatically correct sentence structure in English. E.g. "A reasonable worry it is" is not English. The correct way is "It is a reasonable worry". (Raghuram – "Auto Insurance")
• Pay very close attention to your English and don't invent new words. For example, although it may be very logical that a word like insuree should exist (to mean the person insured) it does not. Microsoft Word has many language tools for you to use including a thesaurus, a dictionary etc. use them wisely. Also see the link on the right for a dictionary website.
