Hi All,
I appreciate Dave Morriss has been working with everyone to get good
shownotes so please keep doing this.
It is important to provide good show notes for reasons described on the
/Picking a slot for your show/
<https://hackerpublicradio.org/about.html#requesting_slot> page:
* They provide the listeners with more information on the topic your
show is covering
* They ensure your show gets posted on time (the volunteers don't have
to make notes for you)
* They encourage people to download your show
* They allow your show to be indexed by search engines
* They make your show accessible to the deaf and hard of hearing
The shownotes should be at a minimum give the person listening an idea
of what your show is about.
If you don't add it, someone else will do it. This is not ideal
* We are volunteers and each time we do this it takes at least 30
minutes ignoring the time to listen to your show in the first place.
* We can only do this after your show is released as we are a
community of peers, and the dmca, we are not allowed to "listen"
(scrob/scan yes) to the show before we post them.
* You know better than me what you talked about.
The only option now for shownotes formatting is in *html *using the
*W*hat *Y*ou *S*ee *I* *W*hat *Y*ou *G*et editor.
I'm writing this as, so far every show has been posted with
markdown/test layout/html, so we need to make is clearer that the editor
is there. Pull requests welcome

When you edit them have it look like you want it to be on the website.
If it looks like markdown - that's wrong.
[WYSIWYG](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WYSIWYG) change it to WYSIWYG
<https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WYSIWYG>
If the links are not blue - that's wrong.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WYSIWYG change it to
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WYSIWYG
If you see html tags - that's wrong.
<p><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WYSIWYG";>WYSIWYG</a></p>
change it to WYSIWYG <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/WYSIWYG>
I'll fix them now but there are so many I'm not going to communicate it
directly to the host any more.
