Editorial policy
A good version of editorial policy gives context before advice. That keeps the page from feeling copied, inflated, or written only to fill space.
Editorial policy should stand on its own. A visitor should be able to read this site page, see the specific issue being discussed, and know what detail to check next.
How topics are chosen
The reader should leave this site page with a clearer sense of editorial policy. If the page does not make the next check easier, it needs more specific detail.
