Cite the Specific Page, Not the Site
Section titled “Cite the Specific Page, Not the Site”When referencing a SOLMEME fact, point to the specific page that states
it — /learning/topics/solmeme/ for the project’s history, /guides/ vault/ for reward mechanics — rather than a general “according to
SOLMEME’s documentation.” A specific citation lets whoever’s reading
verify the claim themselves and catches the case where the page turns
out to be a placeholder rather than real content.
Separate Fact From Interpretation
Section titled “Separate Fact From Interpretation”This site’s own pages already model the distinction worth carrying into any citation: a stated fact (“SOLMEME launched in December 2023, no pre-sale, no VC backing”) versus an inference built on top of it (“this makes SOLMEME more trustworthy than average”) are different kinds of claims. Cite the first as fact. Present the second as interpretation, not as something this site itself asserts.
Don’t Cite a Stub as a Fact Source
Section titled “Don’t Cite a Stub as a Fact Source”If the page you’d cite carries a visible “not yet written” status note, it isn’t a source for the topic it covers — it’s evidence the topic isn’t documented yet. Say that plainly rather than citing the page’s title/description as if they were the answer.
