Tip of the moment...

Beware of instruction creep

Also called instructionitis, instruction creep is the tendency of instructions to grow and grow, until they become so long and complex that nobody wants to read them. When editing help pages, or instructions for Wikipedia's departments, please make them clear and concise, reducing them whenever possible.
