webconf-writing-style
Use when drafting or revising a Web Conference (WWW) paper's prose — building the web-native framing that answers "why is this a WWW paper" on page one, writing for a mixed computing/social-science/economics readership, compressing into 8 self-contained pages, and handling scale numbers and platform names with precision.

# Web Conference Writing Style
A Web Conference paper is judged by readers who may sit in different disciplines
within the same track panel, under a rule that the first 8 pages must carry the
