<div dir="ltr">I like the idea of helping theme authors learn more and do better, especially through educational articles and helpful commentary within reviews but your article seems for the most part to be just your interpretation of the current guidelines. Which I find interesting, but do not necessarily agree 100% with, for example in point 1, "Themes must not generate any JavaScript errors" should simply be "Themes must not generate any (code) errors" not just JavaScript but possibly more importantly PHP,<div>
<br></div><div>It may server a better purpose to simply link to each guideline you see as being over-looked or not correctly applied in past reviews as points of discussion ... just some thoughts.</div></div><div class="gmail_extra">

<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><div>Hello,<br><br></div>I have reviewed quite a few themes submitted to wordpress. When reviewing themes, i see the developers of themes, keep repeating the same mistakes again and again deviating from standard guidelines coding standards. So i decided to put together these points in a single article, thinking that educating the theme developers on these guidelines and thus makes it easy for the review team.<br>
