Welcome! Today is Wednesday, September 08, 2010
Below is a list of suggestions for the proposed AP Stylebook section on new media and social media. The most recent suggestions are listed at the top. To add your suggestions, click HERE.
| website, please! I've been editing professionally since 1986, and "Web site" has looked utterly archaic to me for at least the past 10 years. email would be nice also. |
| Please just don't contribute to the further dumbing down of the English language. I have no problem with website instead of Web site - though I don't understand why Web site is "awkward;" is it really that much harder to type? - but please don't incorporate such ridiculous suggestions as "Facebooked," "Facebooking," etc. |
| This isn't an addition. But I suggest you change "Web site" to "website." I work on a student newspaper, and when I write "Web site," staff members often change it, assuming it's inaccurate. It seems like a poor style rule when using the term correctly sounds like a mistake. |
| Change it to email already. You're wasting my time. |
| How to treat blog titles - quotes, italics or nothing? Also, if all or portion of title is lowercase, should you treat as such in body copy or use Roman caps, e.g. Digg or digg? |
| Clarity on how to describe actions around the use of Twitter. Do we Tweet or Twit? If it's the past tense, did I Twitter, have I Tweeted or have I Twittered? And am I a Twitterer or Twit? We desperately need guidelines on how to best describe our use of Twitter. |
| As a high school teacher who uses this resource I believe inclusion of new and social media is essential for instructing future journalists. It seems to me that each year's update should include direct reference to the year's most prevalent platforms for social networking, and should change from year to year. For example, Facebook has supplanted MySpace for many teens, and numerous bokmark-sharing sites come into vogue each year. In addition, I believe that there should be a detailed analysis of what an online news article looks like, breaking it down into component parts such as: - the written news article - images, broacast clips, or "photostories" - interactive infographics - "comments" I believe the existence of the latter should be addressed, particualrly speaking to the writer's responsibility to moderate the comments on a given article. For example, writers at Albany's Times Union are required to approve and reject reader comments on their own online stories. This immediate "two-way" communication introduces a new aspect into how news is written, and how reporters are held accountable for what they write. In addition, some style rules regarding single-line newswriting (e.g. for use on the broacast news 'ticker', the twitter feed, facebook's status update.) |
| Allow/suggest the use of the amperstand within status updates and Twitter messages. |
| When abbreviating state names for web (such as e-mail, online, or social media) use the postal code abbreviation. |
| Definition of social media v. social marketing Proper abbreviations for common words like ur=your Proper way to reference bit.ly addresses |
| Change Web site to website Change E-mail to email |
| website |
| New/social media includes such and such areas. Definitions of these areas are broad and may differ from one culture to another. We want AP's definition. |
| Though I may know some of these terms, particularly after taking a new media course at my University, others may not. That being said, these are the terms/questions I'd like to see defined/answered: What is a tweet? What does it meant to poke someone? How do I protect my privacy on these social media sites? If I think of any others, I will send them. |
| Please consider changing the phrase Web site to one word, "website." |
| Please change "Web site" to "web site" or "website." Thank you. |
| I come from a print journalism background and now work in government. Moreover, I direct my agency's involvement in and on various Web (e.g., social media) applications and platforms. Coming from a journalism background I am a strictler for proper attribution, including the "retweeting" of Twitter posts. That said, I think a section on proper and/or suggested retweeting (or "forwarding") practices; definitions for now generic terms like "retweet" and "mashup" and "RSS"; and a Q&A re: "back-end credibility" (i.e., attribution through inclusion of a URL(s)" might be helpful to novice users. Thanks for tapping into the "collective intelligence" in design the new stylebook ... the truest essence of Web/social media. |
| Please please PLEASE update "Web site" to "website" so we don't look like a bunch of dinosaurs when writing about it. |
| Change "Web site" to "website". |
| "Web site" should change to "website." |
| Yes of course I agree I'm waiting this new feature |
| Web site vs. website. Let's just use website. E-mail vs. email. Let's just use email. E-book vs. ebook. Again, I prefer ebook. Other terms to address: TXT, @___ (as in @codella - my Twitter handle) And can we finally loose the www. before domain names? I think that' a given and it takes up unnecessary real estate. |
| Please change “Web site” to "website.” |
| Please change “Web site” to "website.” |
| Please change "Web site" to "website" and "e-mail" to "email." Also, please include “text” instead of, or in addition to, “text message.” Also please “texting” and “texted” as verbs. Thank you! |
| Please change “Web site” to "website.” Please change "e-mail" to "email." Thank you! |
| Please change “Web site” to "website.” Please change "e-mail" to "email" Please change "Internet" to "internet" |
| Please change “Web site” to "website” |
| website |
| I would like you all to change Web site to website. I assume you will also add something about Facebook and Twitter and the "tweet." Thanks! |
| Please change “Web site” to "website.” |
| Please change “Web site” to "website.” Please change “e-mail” to "email.” |
| Please change “Web site” to "website.” |
| Please change “Web site” to "website.” |
| Please change “Web site” to "website.” |
| Please change “Web site” to "website.” |
| Please change “Web site” to "website.” |
| Please change “Web site” to "website.” |
| Please adopt as an approved spelling the word website, not web site. |
| Please change “Web site” to "website.” |
| 'website' is one lowercase word Do not use 'log on' for sites that do not actually require a username/password or other authentication; use 'go to' or 'visit' instead. I don't care what Jeff Bezos says, it's 'The Kindle is an e-book reader', not 'Kindle is an e-book reader'. It's a count noun, not a mass noun. Never use 'Wikipedia' to refer to a wiki, which refers to a site whose content is chiefly created by users via interlinked pages, like Wikipedia or the wikis on Wikia. |
| Web site -> website (all one word, lower-case) e-mail -> email (no hyphen) Both of these are much more common usage and should be standardized. blog - Can't count the number of times I've read "A blog, or Web log, is...." Can we all agree that we know what a blog is and don't need the etymology? blogosphere splog liveblog microblog Need definitions, as big parts of the new media world. Good luck with your updates! |
| Please revisit "Web site" and consider changing it to the commonly used "website". |
| Please change the standards from: "Web site" TO "website" and "e-mail" to "email" Thank you! |
| My one deviation from AP Style is with the word "website." According to AP it's supposed to be the clunky "Web site," which seems anachronistic. I'd love to see it listed as one word, no cap. |
| Ditch "Web site". Don't try to shoehorn in a combination of two older established words, just use the term that has become de facto and accepted, "website". It's a new term that has a precise meaning, and is in fact more precise than describing a "site" on the Web, which could be anything. |
| website |
| website |
| I think it would be very helpful to simplify two enormously common new media terms -- website and email. I notice on this page that email uses a hyphen, which is a hassle to type for such a commonly used word. Because email is now so ubiquitous, there should be no need for a hyphen to indicate that it was originally a contraction of "electronic mail". Along the same lines, I see "Web site" used in formal news writing, when "website" gets the point across just as well with fewer keystrokes. |
| It's finally time you changed the word "Web site" to "website" - there is no need to capitalize this word (and yes, it is ONE word). |
| Change "Web site" to website. |
| Everyone working in online communications spells online as one word. Website is one word Email is one word. If you spell them any other way you look ignorant. These are the proper way to spell those words in print and in any other medium. |
| Most important: Web site should be website. Also: New media should be digital media. It is no longer new. Thanks! |
| Instead of "Web site" - which is awkward and not at all how new-media professionals use the word, I suggest making it "website" to more accurately reflect the commonality of the word. Plus, I'm a fan of compound words. |
| 1) Please include website (all one word) as either the standard or accepted alternative to web site. 2) Please include email as either the standard or accepted alternative to e-mail. Thanks! |
| I think it's about time AP correct a couple of grievous misuses of words. First, it's "Web site," not website. It comes from the World Wide Web (note the caps), and in this case, Web modifies "site." Hence, two words. Second, and along the same lines, "back yard" is two words when used as a noun, not one. The noun is "yard," and the modifier is "back." Hence, two words. It's used as one word ONLY when combined to modify something else: backyard pond or backyard grill. AP decided a couple of years ago to make "back yard" one word in all uses. And yet you left "front yard" as two words. Illogical. And just plain wrong. Please fix these things and restore editors' confidence in AP style. |
| Web site should become "website" to reflect common usage, especially among social media experts. |
| It's "website," not "Web site." |
| Please consider using website. Our university faithfully uses AP style guide except in the case of Web site vs. website. I'm all for setting a standard, but usage is overwhelmingly going towards the latter. |
| Change "Web site" to "website" -- I think the cultural usage of the word has outpaced AP Style, and in this case, I'd like to see it change to fit the technology. |
| Like man Americans, I and our readers would like to see Web site spelled like most humans on this planet. A change to website is long overdue. By not acknowledging this, AP is simply on the wrong side of history. |
| Please change your recommendation for the spelling of "Web site" to the much less awkward "website". Thanks! |
| When ending a sentence with a URL, place a space between the address and the URL to keep readers from thinking the URL ends w a "dot." This is especially important in stories that go to the Web with live links as the links won't work with the extra character. |
| tweet (v) - to set a status update on Twitter |
| Here is a short list of terms you might want to include: -Facebooking (as a verb) -Tweeting -Tagging -Following -Apps Also, I'd like to recommend a change to AP Style which has bothered my journalist friends and me for quite a while: Please change "Web site" to "website." Thanks! |
| The 2010 Stylebook should include an explanation on Twitter usage, but should also include style on how to write a Twitter handle (username). I have recently seen papers and news Web sites reference comments made on Twitter. It seems that news outlets should use the social media site's style when writing a handle, using the "@" sign. I.e. "Gary McElyea's twitter handle, @gmcelyea, is not creative. I suggest this because last week I read a Web site that listed a Twitter handle as such, "gmcelyea." |
| "website" does not need to be "Web site." |
| It should be: "website" NOT "Web site" |
| Attributing photos taken from Facebook (I encourage my editors not to do this, but they insist on this anyway) Should editors shorten headlines to meet 140 characters by eliminating words or letting apps do it for them? Guidelines for blogs, specifically, when do you become a voice for a university (or corporation) and stop being a private citizen How social media affect libel Best practices for using social media How to not get sued or fired A generic job description for social media employee at a media company Should official tweets reflect AP style? |
| I owuld love a section for acronyms. Even though I'm still slightly young, I never know what they mean or how I should use them in journalism, i.e. when quoting, etc. I owuld like suggesions on how you would use acronyms such as "LOL," etc. A vocabulary on all-things social media would be helpful, too, such as what a handle and avatar are. Thanks! |
| Why is Web site still two words? I would like to see entries on: Twitter: Twitterer v. Tweeter? Tweeted v. twittered? If you're talking about a blog, tweet, wall post, etc., should it be "typed Jones" instead of "she wrote" or "she said?" |
| Would like to see "Facebooked," "Facebooking," "I'll Facebook you." Can these be used? Capitalized? Is it a proper verb, etc. |
| I would like to see RT (retweet) defined with examples. Also, how hashtags should be properly used in tweeting. |
| My last tweet (about "to enterprise") makes me think that a place for us word lovers to post examples of poor language use and abuse would be terrific. It could be a great place to make fun of all the academic, business, and government language that we all hear or read--and that makes us plain-English believers go crazy! I think the number-one rule should be that a poster's source for the language-mangling word tangle would remain anonymous so that every reader who wishes to comment or guess at meaning can freely do so. Great fun! |
| With so many reliable (and unreliable) sources posting information online, writers cite them as resources in their articles, essays, reports, and books. I see many different formats being used for these citations in writing and would appreciate a table, formula, or writer's guideline which sets a standard citation style to show and state online resources properly. (And does the proper way to cite online sources change often? IF so, why?) |
| Can we stress that grammar and punctuation are still needed and important despite the fact that social media seems to skirt the line on this. Acronyms and sloppy writing are becoming acceptable, and become a bad habit. Will you address legal, copyrights, etc., for web and web banners? I look forward to seeing this updated version |
| For Twitter: hashtags and how to use them, the correct syntax for re-tweets, whether or not it's appropriate to link tweets to Facebook, if people should use ellipses when tweets are too long or just write shorter tweets. For Facebook: what is a Facebook page vs. profile vs. group Acceptability of changing terms such as: email, website or Website, etc. |
| This isn't necessarily exclusive to social media but, rather than calling it an "emaill address" I've been calling it an "edress" for the longest time now. |
| Add an entry for "Web site" under the "W" section. Please make it one word "website" and do not capitalize the "W." Unless someone knows AP Style, they do not write "Web site" this way. It's the number one edit I catch in other people's writing! ;-) |
| Should "social networking" be hyphenated when used as a compound modifier? For example, "The company has launched a new social-networking [or 'social networking'] tool." |
| What is the past tense of the verb "text"? For example, "I text [or 'texted'] you yesterday." |
| Friends @ the AP Style Guide, Can you please please please understand that people visit "websites" not "Web sites?" When you capitalize "Web" you make it sound like "the Web." Or like "the Internet." In its early days, this made sense to regard it like a pronoun and/or like a deity. Now, speaking of "Web sites" just sounds like I am talking about technology with my grandmother. Lower case. One word. As befits something that is completely intergrated into our lives. Please AP, catch up from your 1980's mentality and join us here in 2009. |
| Is it called "twittering" or "tweeting"? |
| Twitter vocabulary! Tweeps, tweeters, twits? It gets confusing... |
| I'm sure you're already planning to add "tweet/tweeted," "Twitter" (both the service and the verb), and I thank you for it. The term you desperately need to include as well is "tweeps." It seems some of the older workers are having a difficult time trying to determine the best term to describe someone who uses Twitter or who you know through Twitter, and it's resulted in some awkwardly funny and embarrassing references to "twit" and "twat." Also, please include "Tweetup/TweetUp." As companies try to engage social media and its users, this is a likely way for them to do so, and it'd be useful to have a standardized term. Finally, please include the preferred names and spelling of as many of the big services as possible, i.e. Facebook, YouTube, UStream, Tumblr, etc. Thank you! |

| How to refer to someone's Twitter account- is it the full URL or the more stylized Twitter preference of @theusername? |
| I would like to see a discussion of the RT (retweet) function - specifically, whether or not it implies endorsement unless disclaimed otherwise. I have an ongoing disagreement with a national journalist who insists on retweeting politicians' messages. To me it looks as if he endoreses the message, but he claims it's merely a "quote" function. I think it compromises his integrity as a journalist. |
| Two questions must be answered: 1.) When quoting a retweet, should you quote the person retweeting or the original tweeter? Bear in mind that some people prefer the old form of retweet, wherein edits are sometimes made. 2.) Do you quote a tweeter by the account name (i.e. @XXXXXXX) or by the name attributed to the account? |
| appropriate abbreviated spelling and definitions: when is it ok to write with vowel omissions just on Twitter? Or is texting and FB ok also? I have a nasty habit of not capitalizing when is that REALLY bad? |
| For Twitter: AP Style allows use of up to three hashtags per Tweet. |
| I would like to see a section addressing the proper way to designate Twitter and Facebook accounts and hashes -- italics would suit well, in my opinion. |
| For Twitter: RT should only be used when directly retweeting someone. If you paraphrase someone, you should cite them by using "via @username" at the end of your tweet. |
| As an avid user of Twitter, I have always wondered what I would be referred to as in an AP story. Does one that uses Twitter go by "Twitter user" or the more Twitter-friendly "tweeter"? Both are acceptable (in my book — not necessarily yours), but I think there needs to be a set-in-stone phrase that applies to someone who tweets. |
| You're going to include the best citations and approaches to use in abbreviated social networks (e.g. Twitter), I hope. |
| Hello! I'd like to see the following entries/terms defined: - verbs associated with Twitter (tweet/tweeted, retweet/retweeted) - how to cite a tweet ("in an @ reply to @apstylebook" vs. "in a direct reply to Twitter user APStylebook") - Google Wave - ping/pinged (as in: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ping_(blogging)) - splog (spam blog) - tweetup vs. "Twitter meetup" |
| All of the Twitter community words that start with "tw" like tweeple and tweetup. It seems that tweetup is a meetup organized on Twitter. But "tweeple?" It falls into the same category as using "purr-fect" when writing about cats. Can you address these made up words? |
| Social media can refer to any Web-based site or tool including twitter, facebook, likedIn ect. Do not use social networking sites, new media ect. Just a thought. |
| Please reconsider your stance on Web site and Internet. The capitalization in the terms are so outdated and awkward. We would never capitalize "Magazine" or "Newspaper," so why capitalize what has become yet another everyday form of media? Website (one word) would also be much more in tune with today's average usage. Compare the Google results: 226m for "website" and 65m for "web site." |
| Twitter, tweet, tweeting, twitterer, tweeted I would really like to see all verbal and noun forms in lowercase with only Twitter -- the name of the company or service -- in caps. Ditto for Google, googling, googled. |
| Terms: Tweet - message sent on Twitter over phone or the web, less than 140 characters Question: When, if ever, do you capitalize the "i" in iPhone? Thanks! |
| Is it OK to abbreviate things for online publishing that you would spell-out in written work? Examples: Can U.S. be used as an adjective instead of United States? What about days of the week/month? |
| Define the difference in usage of: social media social networking new media etc. |
| I do not have a suggestion for a word per say because most new technical words become born and then expire very quickly But just wanted to share this regarding one word/phrase in particular which from the beginning worked like this: About 10-11 years ago, I did research to do work for Web design. After I compiled all the information, asking all over the place, it was thought that the proper way is Web site Web is supposed to be capitalized because it is a "domain" of sorts and therefore, a pronoun. The word site is like an adjective for the word Web. You are discussing what "feature" of the Web you speak of. Of course, as we became more Web savvy, people began to assume, Web site would become website. Now it is difficult to know Web site because so many people are using it as a household word. So I for one think it should be Web site, similar to how Internet was supposed to be capitolized. Would love to get any feedback on this. |
| Well, sense the AP book is so big, I would say it would be nice to see possible hourly updates with AP style issues. The specific terms I would be most interested would be for sport reporting, and what the AP style is for reporting the different scores for the different games. Also what about setting up a 24/7 AP style hotline for any journalist who has a question, but especially focusing towards the college student audience. Just a thought! |
| "aggregator" |
| I think guidelines for quoting Twitter and Facebook status updates would be helpful. With many high profile individuals breaking their own news on social media sites before addressing the media, it would be nice to know how to properly format these status updates. |
| I think "social media" needs a good definition. "New media" does, too. As in, what's the difference? Also: blog blogger Twitter (Tweet, DM, @reply, tweeps, tweet-up, re-tweet. Maybe a whole section dedicated to Twitter terms.) FriendFeed Facebook Status Friend unfriend follow(er) |
| Have any lag time shortened between communications produced by industrial media; better accessibility, and more in concepts of art |
| If there is going to be an updated social media section, there are some web terms that must be updated in the stylebook. "E-mail" and "Web site" are antiquated, to put it bluntly. I don't believe I even see any AP outlets or pieces makes such uses, the stylebook should be updated to reflect this. |
| Appropriate use of "Digg" - Digg it? Dugg it? Use and capitalization of Retweet |
| A few suggestions: Clarifying use of the terms social networking/social media. Expanded use of the terms Web 2.0/Web 3.0 with respect to social media Defining use of new verbs that have developed out of social media: Friend/friending, Facebooking (sending of a message via Facebook), tweeting/twittering, unfriend, etc. Another suggestion: include various ways to cite/credit sources via Facebook and Twitter - an issue that has become far more important with the onset of social media. |
| In addition to definitions, I would love to see etiquette rules as well. What not to do when retweeting, for example. |
| I wish all the guidelines were all in one section instead of broken out in 3-4 different sections. You put them in alpha order anyway. Thanks |
| I would like to see a new term for when describing the process one goes through when too much online social media absorption creates a period of online "burnout-rest-renewal." I wrote a column about this where I say "There is a new phrase regularly occurring on social networks, which is one everyone can understand: “I needed to take a break.” This particular phrase is being used more often, and you know what? We, the online QWERTY keyboarders and dedicated typists of the text totally understand and will give an automatic pass to these online friends who have hit the online social networking wall. Sometimes I might not hear from these recuperating online video casters, chatters, tweeters, bloggers, Facebook and MySpace friends for a week or longer. They will then suddenly re-appear with an enthusiastic “I’m Back!” and pick up where they left off with a renewed energy and new stories to tell." Source column: http://tinyurl.com/y9ldq5n |
| hashtag: meta data associated with short message that provides further context. |
| I would like to see defined how to cite a Tweet or a Status Update within a story. |
| Define the proper usage for attributinga statement to the original source. i.e., if on Twitter, my friend says something funny, instead of copying, pasting & submitting the tweet as if it were my own, use the retweet function or RT @name of person "insert quote here." Also, tweets are increasingly appearing in news and magazine articles, it would be nice to have some guidelines of how to officially list it as a source in a bibliography. Thanks! |
| Update entries on Web site and weblog to website and blog. Include recommendations for referring to Twitter accounts and verbage (standardize to @username; "tweet", "tweeted") |
| names of blogs, Web sites, Web publications: are they plain roman or roman in quotes? (Are AP computers still incapable of using italics?) |
| "Web site" should be changed to "website" because people who don't know AP style often think it is just a mistake, especially with the capitalization. "e-mail" should be changed to "email" or both should be acceptable. This is how more people write it. "weblog" should just be "blog" because people don't even recognize the word "weblog" and don't necessarily associate it with "blog" immediately. "tweet" and "retweet" should be added because they are so commonly used. |
| I'd like to see all the proper ways to refer to Twitter, those who tweet, and the postings created. It seems everyone has an opinion, but yours in the one that counts! |
| Terms: unfriend, tweet, retweet, hashtag, word cloud, @replies, trending topic, app, smartphone, wifi, Bluetooth, social media, follow, API, widget, fail whale, adwords, keywords, tags, Facebook, Twitter, MySpace. I think you should do a section on th |

| I just "tweeted" vs. I just "twittered." |
| Please make Web site all one word and lowercase: website. Thank you for your consideration! |
| Now that the AP Stylebook is embracing new media, the editors should revise their online content section to reflect the modern usage of the words. "Web site" should become "website," etc. Also, "Internet" to become "internet." |
| Google wave or Ustream! And of course twitter and all the lingo that comes along with being the mist said word of 2009! |
