## Writing Guidelines

### Title Best Practices

- Use problem-based titles for troubleshooting: "Fix login errors"
- Match user search language (not internal jargon)
- Keep under 60 characters
- Avoid starting with articles (a, an, the)

### Content Structure
- Lead with the answer/solution
- Use headers for scanning (H2, H3)
- Keep paragraphs under 3 sentences
- Use bullet points for lists of 3+ items
- Include one topic per article
- Add screenshots for visual steps

### Formatting Standards

| Element | Format |
|---------|--------|
| UI elements | **Bold** (Click **Save**) |
| User input | `code` (Enter `admin@email.com`) |
| File paths | `code` (`/settings/profile`) |
| Warnings | > **Warning**: [Text] |
| Tips | > **Tip**: [Text] |
| Notes | > **Note**: [Text] |
| Keyboard shortcuts | `Cmd + S` or `Ctrl + S` |

### SEO Considerations
