What Makes a Good Submission?

We value writing that is:

Original — Your article should be your own work and should not be copied or substantially reproduced from another source.

Well-researched — Important facts, statistics, quotations and historical claims should be checked against reliable sources.

Thoughtful — We prefer analysis, context and meaningful questions over superficial commentary.

Clear — Write in simple, accessible language so that complex ideas can be understood by a wider audience.

Balanced — When discussing contested subjects, present relevant evidence and distinguish established facts from interpretation or opinion.

Useful — A good article should leave the reader with something to understand, question, discover or think about.

Submission Guidelines

Before submitting your article, please keep the following guidelines in mind:

• Submit original content that has not been published elsewhere.
• Use a clear and engaging title.
• Organise your article with appropriate headings and subheadings.
• Avoid unnecessary repetition and filler.
• Cite or link to credible sources where appropriate.
• Clearly identify quotations, statistics and ideas taken from other sources.
• Do not submit promotional, misleading or spam-oriented content.
• Avoid excessive self-promotion or commercial links.
• Images used in an article should be original, properly licensed or sourced from legitimate platforms.
• Articles should provide genuine educational or intellectual value to readers.

Suggested Article Length

There is no strict word limit. However, most articles should be detailed enough to properly explore their subject.

As a general guide:

Short essays: 800–1,200 words
Standard articles: 1,200–2,000 words
In-depth essays: 2,000+ words

Quality and depth are more important than simply reaching a particular word count.
