+LilyPond does not strictly require this, but it is a useful
+convention to follow.
+
+@item
+All context or layout object strings should be prefaced with @code{#}.
+Again, LilyPond does not strictly require this, but it is helpful
+to get users accustomed to this scheme construct, i.e. @code{\set
+Staff.instrumentName = #"cello"}
+
+@item
+Try to avoid using @code{#'} or @code{#`} within when describing
+context or layout properties outside of an @code{@@example} or @code{@@lilypond}, unless
+the description explicitly requires it.
+
+ie @qq{...setting the @code{transparent} property leaves the object where it
+is, but makes it invisible.}
