1
puts "Ruby Code here"
Copied!
Explain the main idea -with some details- of the code, if you explain every line that would be great but it's not a must.
Choose the correct Module.
Make your title clear.
Use Text editor/ide for code identification before pasting your code.
Mention the source, if you copied or developed code that has been created by others; please mention the source in the footer. e.g.

General Contribution
General contributions might be topic requests, proofreading, spelling, book organization and style. All these contributions are welcome; however, they have to be discussed on Rubyfu issues - especially things in regards to topics and/or book organization and styling. At the same time don't hesitate to report even a single word observation about the book, it's for you at the end of the day.
Note: Since this book is enhanced dynamically and unordered, it's hard to make the footer notes with an order-series of numbers for the whole book, so -until I find better solution- I'll make the number order separate for each page individually.
