Guidelines for Submission of Articles/Messages

  • 1. An article, originally submitted at FORUM, if considered scholarly and consistent with MM ideals and policy by the moderator, would be posted at MM main page. However, submission of any articles/messages at forum does not automatically qualify them to be posted at the main page.

  • 4. We would try to post not more than 15 messages per day in the forum. Messages may be rejected at the discretion of the moderators. Considering the large number of emails we receive from you at times, we may not be able to post each and every message or to explain to the members the reasons for rejecting each message. In that case we would just pick and choose the messages we consider most relevant to the scenario at that time. We hope that the members would not take this issue negatively.

  • 6. Views expressed in a message/articles are those of the authors, and MM does not necessarily always endorse them
