Concentrating on the common things people need helps us to keep creole simple (The KISS principle - Keep it simple and stupid). We can derive those [[Common Text Elements]] from analyzing already available markup, but this [[good practice]] goes beyond analyzing commonalities in existing markup variants. We also can derive it from material that where created by users and researchers in an effort to improve usability.
