<Benrob0329> We need to clarify when and how to use each Admonition, I'm seeing a lot of jumps from just TIP to WARNING with no in between |
21:36 |
MTDiscord |
<luatic> I usually use "TIP: do the following" and "WARNING: don't do the following" |
21:36 |
MTDiscord |
<luatic> often the two are of course related, as in "WARNING: don't do this" and "TIP: use this workaround instead" |
21:37 |
MTDiscord |
<Benrob0329> Using two for one statement is bad practice, it's extra visual noise and separates related statements. |
21:54 |
MTDiscord |
<josiah_wi> I think CAUTION should typically be used for "don't do the following" and WARNING should be used for "do this and you will regret it" |
21:54 |
MTDiscord |
<Benrob0329> To be more specific: asciidoc NOTE: This detail is noteworthy. TIP: This is useful. IMPORTANT: You should _really_ know this. CAUTION: If you're not careful, there may be consequence. WARNING: If you do X, Y will happen. |
21:55 |
MTDiscord |
<josiah_wi> If you use WARNING all the time then it will lose its power to communicate something of great importance. |
21:55 |
MTDiscord |
<Benrob0329> The difference between CAUTION and WARNING isn't always intuitive, Asciidoctor actually links a whole article on the subject: https://www.differencebetween.com/difference-between-caution-and-vs-warning/ |
21:57 |
MTDiscord |
<Benrob0329> Basically, Caution is used when the reader should take care before proceeding, while Warning is used when the reader shouldn't proceed at all. |
21:58 |
MTDiscord |
<Benrob0329> WARNING: Don't touch this, you'll die. CAUTION: This knife is very sharp, you could cut yourself if not careful. |
22:24 |
MTDiscord |
<Benrob0329> Also, did we all agree that breaking on sentences was our official style? |
22:25 |
MTDiscord |
<GreenXenith> What? |
22:25 |
MTDiscord |
<GreenXenith> I dont think that was ever discussed |

22:26 |
MTDiscord |
<Benrob0329> The short answer is no, it was just noted by Josiah and myself |
22:26 |
MTDiscord |
<GreenXenith> Ah, so break internally, which will still show up as normal in render |
22:26 |
MTDiscord |
<Benrob0329> yeah |
22:26 |
MTDiscord |
<GreenXenith> Im fine with that |
22:48 |
MTDiscord |
<Benrob0329> I'd like to add some general format rules to HOWTO, this is what I have so far: asciidoc * Use one sentence per line * Define macros for long URLs, or those used multiple times * Use delimitated example blocks for examples, but not for general function usage |

<Benrob0329> (These are more noteworthy rules than an exhaustive list) |
