This is a very helpful guide and a good reminder for those of us who try to help users. It is written clearly. The organization into sections on successful interactions and good replies helps understanding.

I have only one request. Change "Leave replies with actionable content." to "Leave replies that tell the person what to do next." "Actionable" usually means "giving reason for a lawsuit", but has moved into corporate jargon as something that can be acted on. As the fourth bullet point in that section says, avoid jargon.

Thank you for your feedback. You're indeed right, I've changed the wording.
