  • Show respect to persons affected by the article
  • Avoid speculations and personal attacks/ad hominem arguments
  • Do not ridicule your opponents
  • Do not ascribe opinions to other people and do not put words in your opponents’ mouths
  • Support your arguments with facts and references
  • Write your comments in the same language as the article, so everyone who is able to read the article is also able to read the comments.
