==Common Mistakes==
* Do not put words alongside reference links (i.e. <code>&lt;ref&gt;https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ&lt;/ref&gt;</code>, not <code>&lt;ref&gt;BitFS 0x A presses on N64: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ&lt;/ref&gt;</code>). The meaning of the reference will be obvious from context.
* Use parentheses properly! Examples:
    DO:
    A sentence (parenthetical). Another sentence.
   
    DON'T:
    A sentence (parenthetical.) Another sentence.
    A sentence. (parenthetical.) Another sentence.
    A sentence (parenthetical.). Another sentence.
    A sentence. (parenthetical.). Another sentence.
    A sentence. (Parenthetical). Another sentence.
    A sentence. (Parenthetical) another sentence.
    A sentence (Parenthetical) another sentence.
