and not more than one report should be presented if it is supposed to be some special or important news. Likewise, news of no importance, such as the arrival of couriers, constant secret meetings in foreign places, and the like, from which no new information can be learned, may also be omitted.  Similarly, the author's reasoning or other people's discussions about what is happening can be omitted. Speculation about what might happen should be ignored, and only what is reported to have actually happened should be dealt with.

10. Naar noget andet i dets sted, som i saa maader er bleven udelugt, skal igjen indføris og suppleris; da bør det ligeledis først censureris og approberis.
