THE BARE MINIMUM CHECKLIST *When reusing or re-activating an event from within the Events database, most event descriptions must be altered to meet the standards below. Never assume an event description meets those standards until you review it against the rules below. ! Properly mark paragraphs. An events description can have as many paragraphs as necessary. Just be sure to mark each and every paragraph with the proper code: <p> (at the beginning of a paragraph) and </p> (at the end).
