This document discusses the importance of comments on websites as a form of quality control for the internet. It suggests commenting on articles that demonstrate bad practices, explaining what those practices are and providing links to supporting articles. Comments should aim to educate rather than attack, and focus on teaching basic principles constructively without personal criticisms. The goal is to improve the overall quality of information online through respectful commentary.
