Some point in writing a guide is as I write the following:
Use simple language and clear.
Do not make your guide into a long paragraph. Simply write the paragraph’s main points along with a little explanation. This helps your readers easy to understand the guide you wrote.
Include supporting images,screenshot or examples if needed.
Include a screenshot or supporting images can help the reader to have a better understanding and prevent misleads the readers. Include examples to help your readers understanding your guide article.
Avoid marketing language.
Marketing language which is meant here is to add comments and information that is not necessary. Remember to always use language that is simple and clear as the first point I mention above. Using long marketing language would decrease the value of the information contained in your article.
Point only.

Wikipedia is one example of site that contains various information that you can use as reference.
