I am very curious about what you guys think about reusing assets across multiple guides.
What I mean by that is copy-pasting some universal information across different guides. Let's say, hypothetically speaking that I create an
Anivia support guide (crazy thought right?) and it features all I know about support mechanics (warding, trading, recalling, etc.) If I were to now create a guide about support Ahri for example, Do you think it would be a good idea to reuse the general support assets from the Anivia guide, redo them slightly so they fit Ahri's playstyle and paste them into an Ahri guide? Wouldn't that be like... kinda a cheap move by me?
What I am trying to say is that I don't think I can explain my support-mechanics knowledge in a better way than I did in Seven Wonders. But I feel kind of uneasy considering that half of the guide ends up being copy-pasted into another. The blog-answering-squad is the most insightful folk I know of. Do you have any wisdom to share on this topic? What is your opinion?
Thanks in advance for any feedback <3

Just need to make sure to have this rule in mind and you're all good:
Reusing content of your previous guides when creating a new guide is allowed only for generally applicable information (e.g. warding spots, jungle routes) and only in reasonable amounts. The acceptable amount of reused information is 20% of the guide's total content. Authors that are found to reuse too much content from their previous guides will be contacted by site administrators, and they will be given a time frame to update their guide(s) with enough unique information, else they risk having their guides archived and locked until changes are made.
