Writing Your Article

The first step to writing your article is picking a category (or multiple) by checking the boxes under Type. Be sure to pick a category that best describes what type of content your article will have!

After picking a Category, the next steps are to type a Title for your article into the Title box and to choose a header image for your article in the Image box. Though a header image is not a requirement, you will need one to meet the criteria to earn LION. If you don’t have a header image yourself, you can find ones that we have premade under the Crypto Resources tab on the Research Portal navigation bar.

The next step is typing out your article! The body of the article should be put in the Description box. The toolbar above the Description box contains multiple formatting tools and an image uploading tool for you to style your article. See below for best practices on uploading images.

You can also attach documents that are relevant to your article or that you would like to include with the attach file button below the Description box.

Best Practice for Uploading Images

If your article contains images within the body make sure to use the image uploading tool contained in the toolbar. Also make sure to remove spaces from image filename as our servers do not enjoy when images have spaces within the filename, and it will cause an error when you try to submit an article if it has these spaces. You can remove the spaces or replace them with underscores or dashes.
