===Basic Formatting of Highlights===
The formatting of highlights should always follow four general rules, with a few exceptions:

~1) There should be a hyphen to commence the highlight;
~1) The highlight should always begin with an "[[IntroductoryVerbs introductory verb]]";
~1) There should be a space in between each highlight; and
~1) There should be a [[Citations citation]] at the end of each highlight.

Here is an example: SB 29 from Utah during the 2009 session. This is the final version of the highlights section:

~& //-Defines "corporate public water systems" as a public water system that is owned by a corporation engaging in water distribution only to its shareholders (Sec. 1).


-Prohibits a corporate public water system from adding or removing fluoride without the majority of the votes cast in support by the shareholders (Sec. 1).

-Requires corporate public water systems who opt not to add fluoride to annually provide notice of the average amount of fluoride in the water to individuals who receive water from the system (Sec. 1).

-Specifies that a vote in support of adding or removing fluoride does not require a supplier of a public water system, including a system that provides water to the corporate public water system, to add or remove fluoride (Sec. 1).

-This is a substitute bill sponsored by Sen. Dennis Stowell.//

Notice that all of the highlights follow the four general rules, except for the last highlight, which omits two of the rules because it is a "[[DisclaimerHighlights disclaimer highlight]]":
~-It does not begin with an "introductory" verb, and
~-It does not contain a citation.
These rules do not apply to disclaimer highlights, which are a special case and should occur relatively infrequently. Aside from this circumstance, the four general rules should always apply.
