Checklist (pick Docs or Code)

• [x] Docs contribution (philosophy, literature, content)

  • [x] REQUIRED I accept that my writing is submitted under the ATTRIBUTION-NONCOMMERCIAL-SHAREALIKE 4.0 INTERNATIONAL, which, briefly put, prohibits commercial re-use of the content, but allows sharing, remixing and building upon the material insofar as attribution is given (see legal code), and in this regard I understand that my writing is open to be modified, remixed and build upon by others in the sPhil community within the systemphil/sphil project in future perpetuity.

  • [x] REQUIRED I have followed the formatting guidelines and verified there are no formatting bugs. Try markdown preview here.

  • [x] REQUIRED I have followed the MLA citation style.

  • [x] REQUIRED I have added or verified title and description metadata at the very top of the file. Example:

    ---
    title: Hegel Guides
    description: Learn about the philosophy of G. W. F. Hegel
    ---

  • [ ] My article is a stub or I want to actively encourage contribution, I've added the Stub component to the bottom of my content but before the bibliography:

    import Stub from "@/components/Stub";
    
    <Stub />;

  • [x] REQUIRED I have added, verified or extended a bibliography. This is added before the authors section and follows MLA guidelines. Example:

    ## Works Cited
    
    <div className="text-sm">
        - Hegel, Friedrich Georg Wilhelm. _The Science of Logic_. Translated
        by George di Giovanni, Cambridge University Press, 2010. - Kant,
        Immanuel. _The Critique of Pure Reason_. Edited by Paul Guyer and
        Allen W. Wood, Cambridge University Press, 1998.
    </div>

  • [x] I have signed the document with my name/username under either as Authors, Editors or Contributors.

    Use Authors if you have created and substantially added content.
    Use Editor if you have made substantial edits or review.
    Use Contributor if you have made minor edits, reviews or contributions.
    If you've done multiple, pick the most weighted: Author > Editor > Contributor.
    If you prefer to remain anonymous, that's fine too, but note that a record of your contributions based on your GitHub username will exist here in the codebase.

    // Bibliography goes here

  • [ ] If the article makes use of footnotes, I have checked that **Notes** is exactly the very last item in the file.
