Please follow the following standards. We designed the following guidelines to make the paper easily digestible and accessible for everyone.
- Use the defined commands in
main.tex
. - Do not include code examples.
- Use the first-person plural ("we") and the active voice. E.g.:
- active: "the diversity of data sets makes this difficult"
- passive: "this is made difficult by the diversity of data sets"
- active: "The SunPy Community et al. (2015) described version 0.5"
- passive: "Version 0.5 was described in The SunPy Community et al. (2015)"
- Avoid overly technical language (like subclass, decorator, namespace, mixin, and factory) wherever possible.
- Use plain English to reference a piece of code (e.g. "a Pandas dataframe" versus "a
pandas.DataFrame
"). - Define references to other code whenever reasonable (e.g. "a Pandas dataframe, or a two-dimensional data structure aligned in rows and columns").
