+When contributing blog posts, please follow these guidelines:
+
+**Tag naming conventions:**

+- Tags must be defined in `blog/tags.yml` before use
+- Check existing tags in `blog/tags.yml` before adding new ones

+**Truncation markers:**
+- Most blog posts should include `<!-- truncate -->` markers for better previews
+- **Exception:** Posts tagged with `media` (short video content) should NOT include truncation markers to preserve video visibility in blog listings
