Editorial guidelines for writers
How an idea becomes a clear, trustworthy, publishable article on Vemetto.
Choosing the idea
Write the article’s question in one sentence. If it needs three questions, it may need splitting. Decide what the reader will know or see more clearly by the end.
Building the article
An introduction that makes a promise, paragraphs that move from definition to explanation to evidence and example, and a conclusion that restates the idea without repeating words. Subheadings help readers but do not replace full paragraphs.
Sources and originality
Link a source for every figure or specialist fact that can be verified. Do not copy the source’s wording; understand the information and explain it in your own voice. Disclose any use of AI, and never attribute to it a personal experience that did not happen to you.
Review criteria
We review clarity of the idea, value of the content, soundness of sources, language and originality.
