1. Give proper attribution when you can. This includes signing your name (or consistent alias) and taking responsibility for your own work as well as properly citing the contributions of others. Depending on the license the material you're working with has been released under, the latter may be a legal requirement.
2. Don't post company names or individual names/email addresses/contact information if they are not in the room and agree to what is being said about them. If you see a place where someone else's contact information is posted without their permission, gently remind
3. Try not to speculate on root cause of a problem. This generally leads to blame or finger pointing and when the truth does come out (usually days later), then you could be wrong and you lose credibility.
4. Think about it from a news media perspective -- we should take some time to really get to the facts and the root cause before publishing, because more often than not early speculation is just wrong and unprofessional.
