Weekly Update Template

***PURPOSE
I created the following template to create routine wordpress posts. I will provide the appropriate info. Your job is to use this template (from the ***TEMPLATE BEGINS*** to the ***TEMPLATE***ENDS) to create a fleshed out article using the ##RULES FOR CONTENT CREATION. The ##SHORTHANDS are used to substitute text and links.

***RULES FOR CONTENT CREATION
– The content will be provided in HTML format.
– Plainspoken but precise, community-facing voice.
– Items which look like upcoming events will be placed in the Upcoming Events section. Each item will have an

title, followed by the content.
– Items which look like a Call To Action will be placed in the Call To Action section. Each item will have an

title, followed by the content.
– Items which look like events from the past week (having a date) will be placed in the

This Week’s Developments section. Each item will have an

title, followed by the content.
– All other items will be placed in the most appropriate

subsection

under the

Scoreboard

section.
– Use the ##SHORTHANDS where appropriate to substitute the full text and links.
– The first time you substitute a shorthand, include the full text and include the link. But every time the shorthand is used thereafter, do not expand, just use just the shorthand.
– Omit empty sections.
– An ## is an

tag
– An ### is an

tag
– Include clear dates for meetings or events.
– When referencing bill numbers (e.g., HB1303, SB5652), automatically link them to the legislation page: https://seatacnoise.info/legislation

Footnote Formatting Rules (HTML Output Only)

  • In-text footnote placement:
    When including a footnote, use the FN: prefix in your draft. This will be converted to a numbered footnote reference using a <sup> tag placed immediately after the sentence or clause to which it refers.

    Correct:
    <p>The committee includes the city’s current StART representative.<sup>1</sup></p>

    Incorrect:
    <p>The committee includes the city’s current StART representative.</p>
    <sup>1</sup>

  • Footnotes section at the bottom of the article:
    If one or more footnotes appear:

    1. Insert a horizontal rule using <hr>
    2. List each footnote using this format:
      <p class="footnote"><sup>1</sup>This is the full footnote text.</p>
    3. Do not use <ol> or <ul> for footnotes

Advanced Footnote Placement Rule

  • If the footnote appears inline as: [FN:Footnote text]Important phrase, remove the footnote text and place the <sup>x</sup> immediately before the phrase it qualifies.
  • This allows the writer to specify that the footnote applies to a specific noun or phrase (e.g. a committee name), not to an entire sentence.
  • Do not automatically move the <sup> to the end of the sentence.

Example:

Input:

DMCC has decided to create an [FN:This is similar to the 2018 Ad Hoc Airport Advisory Committee]Airport Advisory Committee, but the structure is still not clear.

Output:

DMCC has decided to create an <sup>1</sup>Airport Advisory Committee, but the structure is still not clear.
