+The brand
+---------
+
+We are called **Read the Docs**.
+The *the* is not capitalized.
+
+We do however use the acronym **RTD**.
+
+Titles
+------
+
+For page titles, or Heading1 as they are sometimes called, we use title-case.
+
+If the page includes multiple sub-headings (H2, H3),
+we usually use sentence-case unless the titles include terminology that is supposed to be capitalized.
+
+Content
+-------
+
+* Do not break the content across multiple lines at 80 characters,
+  but rather break them on semantic meaning (e.g. periods or commas).
+  Read more about this `here <http://rhodesmill.org/brandon/2012/one-sentence-per-line/>`_.
+* If you are cross-referencing to a different page within our website,
+  use the ``doc`` directive and not a hyperlink.
