Comments may be more relevant in programming code (JS, PHP, etc.) rather
than HTML but I wouldn't exclude comments from HTML.

I would add to that "Valid (X)HTML" - validate before posting. But a step
towards this would be creating valid and usable templates that others can
use.

My 2 cents,

Jules
