Formatting Guidelines

As a general rule high yield information should be formatted as Q&A, and lower-yield information inline cloze is permitted; especially if the recall is difficult.

<aside> <img src="/icons/verified_gray.svg" alt="/icons/verified_gray.svg" width="40px" /> Standard Formatting

To ensure true understanding and to avoid card recognition based on pattern recognition, there are several standard formatting for common cards. This concept is discussed in further detail in Writing Excellent Anki Cards - Consistency of Structure. Please consider viewing existing cards in the deck as another way to learn what sort of cards we approve!
