<summary>Can I use footnotes?</summary>
|
|
|
In almost all cases, footnotes should just be part of your text. Just format your text accordingly. Only statements or technical details which really disturb the flow of the text should go to a footnote. Generally, they should be avoided.

|

<summary>Some simpel language tips (English)</summary>
|
|
|
* No comma before *that*
|
|
|
* Better use a gerund than *which*
|
|
|
* In contradiction to German, everything which can be read as a sentence on its own should be surrounded by commas, e.g.
|
|
|
> Although, the weather is good today, there might be some rain.
|
|
|
* Active is always preferrable over passive
|
|
|
* Avoid using active in the form 'I did', 'We did'. In a thesis where 'I did' might be correct, in almost all other context these phrases are wrong (who is 'I' or 'we' in a 30 author paper?)
