Who likes articles? I do, I do!!! There is nothing I find mais satisfying here than leitura a good artigo that gives rise to a great discussion. Below I have everything you need to know about artigos to get you composição literária and get the discussions started.

Rules for artigos and artigo Comments

1. First and foremost, as with the rest of the spot, NO SPAM! If I see any spam artigos or comments I will denunciar them on sight....yeah...I'm mean about spam.

2. Please keep your artigos relevant to the series...this goes hand-in-hand with the spam. No, Harry Potter doesn't make an appearance at Camp Halfblood and I seriously doubt that Whisty Allgood was spotted on Mt. Olympus so I don't want them to be a topic for an article...they have their own books and their own spots.

3.Grammar and Spelling, people, grammar and spelling. Please try your hardest to use proper grammar and spelling. I know that we all make our mistakes, and sometimes not even a spell check will catch everything, but try your hardest. If you need someone to read it before hand I will be glad to go over it and editar mistakes.

4. I will not have any rude remarks in an artigo or in the comments to an article. I will denunciar these on site. No one, and I mean no one deserves to be treated in an ill manner. If you don't have anything good to say don't say anything at all.

5. Constructive criticism and debate are very much tolerated and welcome, but they mustn't be rude in any way.

6. Vulgarity, such as lewd subjects and curse words, is not allowed...there are only certain instances in an artigo that I will allow them. We will discuss those in a few minutes.

7.If you are given a warning por an admin, just like on the rest of the spot, you are expected to follow their instructions. Not heeding the words of an admin twice in a row will result in a report. Three reports on fanpop means a ban from the site (not just the spot), so please try to follow the rules and listen to the admins...you can find a complete list of the admins in the rules for the heroes of Olympus spot.

8.Plagiarism will NOT be tolerated. Whether it be in the artigo itself or in the comments, if I see it I WILL denunciar it! If you are going to use someone else's words give them credit for it.

9. Spoilers will be in effect for two weeks after the release of new (sample) chapters and for at least 2-4 months after the release of the books. If your artigo contains spoilers please put a spoiler alert in both the título and in the description, and don't put any revealing information in those two places. Failure to follow this will result in one warning. If a segundo warning is needed I will simply denunciar you.

10. FANFICTION MUST GO IN THE FORUMS!!! All chapter fics must be posted in the forums!Only short stories, ones that are finished in one chapter/article,are allowed to be placed in the artigos section. Any stories placed in the artigos with multiple chapters will be reported as spam or miscategorized content!



Ok so there's some basic rules. Now onto other business, that is to say, the who, what, when, where, how and why of artigo writing.


First off, you'll notice that there are categories in the artigo section. Let's discuss each.


Opinion- This is what 95% of the artigos on the HoO spot are. Pretty much, this is where artigos about your theories, ideas and such go.

Review- Have you finished leitura one of the books and you want to give your thoughts about the events that occurred? This is where you do it. Reviews should be factual, but a little opinion never hurt. This in no way, shape or form is where you post your predictions for future books.

Guide-This is where only fact is accepted. If you want to give everybody a rundown of the characters, or a descrição of the plot line you'll put it here. Also, rules posted por the admins will be posted as guides and new information about upcoming releases will be posted here por one of the admins.

Fan Fiction-This is a special artigo because most fanfiction is to be placed in the forums. Only short stories, ones that are finished in one chapter/article,are allowed to be filed under this category. This is the only one of the artigo categories that vulgarity will be allowed in, but it must be properly rated like the regular fanfiction.

List-Oh! So you want to list out the important places or you want to make a checklist of things a young demigod should take on their quest? This is the place to do it...

Other- This is a catch all for everything that doesn't fit in the other categories. Again, please make sure it is relevant to the spot and the series.
