It should not include traditional narrative text, but may consist of a story format such as a fast-fact box, list, glossary, quiz, poll, chart, Q and A, Pro\/Con, timeline, bio box, quote collection or any other alternative form. An ASF submitted in this category should NOT be connected to another story or be part of a larger story package; it must stand alone.
