2)The guide also is easy to read with larger text, defined sections, and pictures to make the article more visually appealing. Furthermore, the format flows quite easily with double spacing and sometimes colorful layouts.
3)The purpose of these QRGs seems to be to give the reader a wide ranging understanding of the topic including all sides so they are informed thoroughly. They are very in depth on the complexities of the issue and make sure to cover all important information.
4) The audience of these QRGs can vary depending on what topic they are on, but generally seem readable for the general public, because they assume you know nothing about the subject coming in. They normally can be understood by anyone interested in the issue.
5)The QRGs can use videos to show exactly what they are talking about, or pictures as diagrams to further explain the topic. Sometimes there is simply a picture to add visual interest and draw the reader in.

Reflection:
After looking at several of my peer's responses to the same questions I saw a few things I had not previously considered. I loved how Cora discussed the importance of visuals in a QRG and how they "add an extra layer of interaction" to further engage the reader in the topic. Delaneel's article has a very detailed and precise description of what elements and formats a QRG entailed, listing 5 major parts which I really enjoyed, as well as how his post was formatted like a QRG. Finally, I enjoyed how Gabi described the importance of a QRG and how it can replace looking through hundreds of pages for the same information, making it more convenient and accessible.

I agree with your point that QRGs are written to the general public because the article explains it in simple terms, as if you know nothing about the topic. I agree that the format flows nicely with the clearly labelled headers and the pictures to help make it visually appealing. I also agree with your point that pictures help explain the topic, especially on more complex ideas that hard to explain with words.
