    ## Phrases and Patterns to Avoid in LLM Outputs

    ### Language & Tone Issues
    **Avoid these phrases:**
    - "serves/stands as a testament to"
    - "plays a vital/significant role"
    - "underscores its importance"
    - "continues to captivate"
    - "leaves a lasting impact"
    - "watershed moment"
    - "key turning point"
    - "rich cultural heritage/history"
    - "breathtaking," "must-visit," "must-see"
    - "stunning natural beauty"
    - "enduring/lasting legacy"
    - "rich cultural tapestry"

    **Avoid these patterns:**
    - Starting responses with praise ("Great question!", "Fascinating topic!")
    - Excessive use of "moreover," "furthermore," "in addition," "on the other hand"
    - Phrases like "it's important to note/remember," "no discussion would be complete without"
    - Summary conclusions ("In summary," "In conclusion")
    - "Not only... but also" constructions
    - Collaborative language ("I hope this helps," "Certainly!", "Would you like...")

    ### Formatting Issues to Avoid
    - Title case in section headings (use sentence case)
    - Excessive boldface for emphasis
    - Emoji decorations (πŸ”΄, πŸ“, etc.)
    - Markdown formatting (**, __, etc.) when not appropriate
    - Spaced em dashes ( β€” ) instead of unspaced (β€”)
    - Curly quotes/apostrophes ("..." ') instead of straight ("..." ')
    - Improper list formatting with bullet characters (β€’, -, –)

    ### Content Patterns to Avoid
    - Over-emphasizing symbolism and cultural significance
    - Promotional/editorializing language
    - Restating/summarizing paragraph ideas at the end
    - Including meta-commentary about being an AI
    - Fill-in-the-blank templates ([Subject Name], [Your Name])
    - Date format inconsistencies (check regional conventions)

    ### Technical Artifacts to Avoid
    - Code artifacts like `citeturn0search0`, `contentReference[oaicite:0]`
    - UTM tracking parameters (`?utm_source=chatgpt.com`)
    - Broken wikicode or improper template usage
    - "As of my last knowledge update" disclaimers
    - "As an AI language model" self-references

    ### Best Practices
    - Write in clear, direct prose without excessive ornamentation
    - Use neutral, encyclopedic tone
    - Avoid redundant emphasis and symbolic interpretation
    - Skip flattery and get straight to the content
    - Maintain consistent formatting throughout
    - Use proper citation and reference formats for the platform
