<div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Dear Reviewers,</div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">
If is not too much to ask, can we please go back to basics and revisit <a href="http://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Review">http://codex.wordpress.org/Theme_Review</a></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">
<br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:arial,helvetica,sans-serif">Here is what I am noticing from the folks that are not newbies:</div><div class="gmail_default"><ul><li><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">Invalid DOCTYPE declaration</font></li>
<li><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">Hardcoding META description and keywords in header.php</font></li><li><font face="arial, helvetica, sans-serif">Including scripts/styles in header.php and footer.php</font></li>
<li>Including CDN's such as jQuery, Amazon etc., is inappropriate and not accepted. To make things easier, we only allow <a href="http://fonts.googleapis.com">fonts.googleapis.com</a>, nothing else.</li><li>License. This is big around here guys. Everything must be GPL-Compatible. Lately we approve commercial fonts, commercial images and that is no good.</li>
<li>Bad or multi-credit links in footer area.</li></ul><div>As always, if you are not sure about something, you can always ask away, there is no shame in that. If we pay extra attention no Theme will be reopened, at least not as often as we do :) </div>
<div><br></div><div>Each time we reopen the ticket there will be explanation why and how to improve, but that doesn't seem to be working.</div><div><br></div><div>Also, the incentives program is not a game where reviewers compete.</div>
<div><br></div><div>This message was not intended to make anyone look bad. Admin job is to go over all approved Themes before they are marked live :)</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks for your help,</div><div>Emil</div></div>
