 - **General Guidelines**:
     - Always ensure that comments are clear, concise, and provide sufficient information to understand the code.
     - When referencing variables or constants, use `{@code}` to wrap them within the comment.
     - Use `{@link}` to refer to classes, methods, or any other Java elements where appropriate.
     - Key Methods: In class-level comments, list out key methods provided by the class, which can help users quickly understand the main functionalities. 
     - Versioning: Include the `@since` tag in both class-level and method-level comments to indicate the version since which the class or method has been available.
-      - If you update a Class/Method, please add/update the `@version` to indicate it has been changed.
+    - If you update a Class, please add/update the `@version` to indicate it has been changed.
     - Copyright: Each file should start with `// Copyright (c) BlueLib. Licensed under the MIT License.`
+    - Tags: Use `@see` to link to the correct Wiki Documentation page if it exists.
+    - Logging: Log every step using `BaseLogger.log`, Always remove the `@EnableLogging` annotation/disable the logging before committing.
+    - Error Handling: Always ensure that errors and warnings are logged using appropriate logging levels. Critical steps must be logged at least with `BaseLogger.log(BaseLogLevel.Error)` to keep a trail of execution.
 
 ### Deprecation
 
 - If you optimize a method, variable, or class and determine that it is no longer necessary for the library, mark it as `@Deprecated` instead of removing it. This only applies to elements that have been included in previous released versions of the library.
-
 - Include a **strong TODO comment** explaining why it is deprecated and any further action required, such as testing or eventual removal.
+- Include an **`@see`** that links to the New Method
