* Add only one H1 or title in each document, by adding '#' at the begining of it (when using markdown). For subtitles, use '##', '###' and so on.
* Do not duplicate information.
* Be brief and clear.
* Whenever it applies, add documents in alphabetical order.

* Images should have a specific, non-generic name that will differentiate them.
* Keep all file names in lower case.
