A few notes about using our public submission system:

• Please type your submission directly into the website text editor.
• "Komento Disable" and "Komento Lock" buttons in the website text editor either disable comments or lock further comments on an article.
• Every article (at lease initially) must be approved by a moderator. Once approved, you may make as many edits as you like without moderator approval.
• For any and all articles that you would like to delete, please send a request and it will be promptly honored. Go to hennensobserver.com/contact-us
