Thank you for pointing this out!! 
We are posting here to spread knowledges, so its important to make sure the content in the post is right, and not copy of someone else!! 

All of us should work and help the science community grow so we can all grow with it!!

Thanks for writing this!  I have been wondering this very thing and believe it might have been you I spoke to about this very topic.  I wrote an article that probably doesn't fit into the Third category, but still, I was reaching at straws in the dark, trying to figure out how I should find an effective way of engaging the scientific community/the science enthusiasts on here, but to do so properly since I was sure there were groups to join or tags that would be more effective.  The article I wrote, that makes me so appreciative of THIS article is here: https://steemit.com/science/@ecoknowme/need-science-people  It does have too many videos and is too long for most people, but I would encourage people to simply write well, use references and perhaps, find a balance between putting out good content regularly, and using this platform as an opportunity to share information that can be repeatedly referenced, built on and better understood by the general public and those that collaborate on such projects.  Thanks again, @suesa, will try to polish up for future posts.

Excellent post is very helpful, thank you for sharing it with us, I have also posted science post, you think of this https://steemit.com/science/@falcao12/mixtures-of-dirichlet-process-and-gaussian-mixtures

Great topic. Everyone has his own style of wringing. I think that most people don't spend enough time writing. We get overwhelmed with information via images and videos.

yup, you are right, I am seeing a lot of posts with photos without sources...

Scrolling through your old post and seeing such wonderful info makes smile.

Hopefully after reading this I will try to experiment more and see if u could write better posts

I am very bad in writing short posts. I think I have never written any post with less than 1000 words (okay, with maybe one or more exceptions :) ). It would be very hard to me to make my posts shorter (I could in contrast make them waaaay longer ;) )

Very good points to create a good post. Thanks for sharing. I try to make it interesting, maybe you like my last post: https://busy.org/history/@oscarcc89/4rjfeh-humanity-the-origin-2-drawings-eng

This was a very useful article. I am just starting out with Steemit and trying to write a few scientific articles myself. Most of the articles I plan to write are directly from my knowledge rather than from information on websites. Following this, how do you think I should be referencing my articles?

This is what I call hitting the nail on the head. You've pinpointed the current problem accurately and provided helpful direction to remedy it. Hear! hear! May Steemit soon fall only in the third category. :)

This was very informative, thank you.  Those of us currently in academia might be accustomed to writing papers and journal entries, but the style does not apply well to a blog post.  This style bridges the gap a bit.

Thank you for pointing this out! As a scientist, I think you are definitively right with the point *sources*. We don't need a discussion about this, because it is a fact, especially for posts about novel literature or special topics.

I can only say it for my little series (I don't know if you read it or even talk about it among others) but I think that long posts are not necessarily bad or bad in general. To explain some topics you can either presume some basics or you extend the scope. I think, it is depending from the audience you wish to reach. 

I asked myself severel times, if I should add some sources but in fact, I write about rather basic things and most time out of my mind. Maybe I could cite Wikipedia articles (even if this is not necessarily a reliable source) or my lecture scripts or general books. Until now, I decided against it because somehow I think, for scientist it is basic knowledge. And the audience I write for at the moment, would not use the further sources. Maybe I can add something like "for further information, you can read here and here". I will think about it. Maybe you or someone else has any suggestions?

That rules can be applied for any post not just science
