<div dir="ltr"><div>Here are the core beginnings of a style guide for Wordpress posts.  I'm throwing this out here for discussion because it seems that we have been inconsistent in how we use these meta-fields for Wordpress posts, but I don't feel strongly one way or the other about how we do it (we can narrow the options for "Status"--see below), but I suppose we should be consistent.</div><div><br></div><div>
