• I'm familiar with the Octopus voice and style, the guide for blog content basics, and writing educational content.
• I've self-edited my work, including checking the content using Grammarly (Octopus has a corporate license) and the Hemingway app to remove typos, grammatical errors, and passive voice.
• I've used text-to-speech software to listen to my writing to minimize typos and other mistakes.
• The PR build passes validation, and if it doesn't, I've checked the common validations errors and none of those apply.
• The images I've included follow the rules for working with images.
• I've added alt text for all the images I've included (alt text describes an image to people unable to see it, 125 characters max).
• The draft is complete, and this post is ready to be reviewed. (Please mark the post 'ready for review' at the bottom of the PR.)
• I've dropped a note in Slack in #website-requests to advise that my post is ready for review.
