Content Guidelines for Editors

To maintain the encyclopedic integrity of this portal and its associated articles, editors must adhere to the following guidelines:

1. Neutral Point of View (NPOV): All articles must present information fairly and without bias. Claims regarding potential returns or market predictions must be attributed to reliable sources or presented as theoretical possibilities, not as guarantees.
2. Verifiability: All factual claims, especially those concerning market data, regulatory changes, or specific product specifications, must be supported by citations to reliable, independent sources.
3. No Promotional Content: Content must not endorse specific trading platforms, brokers, or investment strategies designed to encourage trading activity. Avoid language that suggests guaranteed profit or downplays inherent risks.
4. Clarity and Accessibility: Content should be written clearly, avoiding excessive jargon where possible. Complex financial terms must be defined or linked to their respective explanatory articles.
5. Scope Adherence: Articles should remain focused on the technical and financial aspects of crypto futures. Discussions about the underlying cryptocurrency's technology or general investment advice unrelated to futures mechanics should be kept minimal or linked to appropriate portals.
