Here to Deliver Value

Hello All,

As most folks here are, I'm a writer who's still learning Constant Content.

I've got a quick question: Is it okay if I use "we" in articles? I know we're not supposed to use "I," as we're not writing narratives, but what about "we," as in, "Now that we've established the idea that X, let's explore Y..."

Thanks.

Nope, that won't fly. I've gotten kicked for using "let's."

Best to avoid. I've had some 'like many of us...' type phrases get through, but others got nixxed. Depends on the editor it seems, so for a quieter life I just try and work around it in the least clumsy way possible.

Oh, and welcome to the forum BTW
