Content Guidelines

Tips Nepal aims to frame our writers’ interests in a way that people can learn and get information from our contributors’ experiences. As an information powerhouse, we have set certain guidelines to preserve authenticity, credibility, and a standard of writing our audience has come to expect from our organization.  

  1. Plagiarism and/or paraphrasing is strictly prohibited. Your work should be completely original to you, both in writing and perspective. If the work of anyone other than you are used or mentioned, we require proper citation and permission from the original author. Failure to do so may result in termination of your contributor status. 
  1. Prefer articles that are informative and educative over purely opinion pieces. Advise readers on areas that you are good at and promote an environment of learning through your pieces.
  1. You are encouraged to express your opinion, but it should have a proper explanation with depth and nuance to it. Any and all arguments introduced should be backed with proper evidence and/or explanation.  
  1. The topics and discussions in your articles should provide an insight that does not clash with something you can readily find on the web. Avoid topics that are cliched or worn out. If such topics are used, provide a unique perspective that is unavailable anywhere else.  
  1. Submit contents that are free of grammatical/ spelling errors and meet the standards of correct basic English. Proofread your articles thoroughly before sending them in. You should aim to send in pieces that do not require rechecking. 
  1. Your articles must not degrade any Nepali culture, caste, or any international race, sexuality, and religion. If writing on a controversial topic, make very careful and informed claims. If any direct degradation of any culture or identity is found, it may result in the termination of your contributor status. 
  1. Your work should be the best possible reflection of your ability to write and/or create. As long as you write on topics you feel passionately about, this should not be a problem. 
  1. Refrain from advertising yourself or any third-party products in your articles. We assure you that you will receive due credit for your work on the website, other than that you are prohibited from marketing yourself.  
  1. Outgoing links are allowed, but inbound links are preferred. Research properly before linking outbound articles. Do not link articles outside of our website if a similar counterpart is available on our own.  
  1.  Our website already covers a wide range of subject areas. Do not venture out of the topic areas unless specified otherwise.  
  1. Articles must exceed 500 words in length unless specified otherwise. For good standing, try to reach the 900-word mark.
