+!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+
+!!! STOP !!!
+
+!! These are not valid MarkDown comments.
+
+!! You MUST read, comply with, and then remove all of these lines to have a
+
+!! valid Schema README file.
+
+1. Be careful if using any existing Schema, or its README, as reference for a
+   new Schema.  Some of them will have some departures from best practices for
+   historical reasons.  It's usually not easy to co-ordinate all Listeners and
+   Senders smoothly updating to a new version of a Schema, so less than ideal
+   requires/optional/disallowed definitions might be present in older Schemas.
+
+   [The main Schema documentation](../README-EDDN-schemas.md) is the canonical
+   authority.
+2. Replace all instances of `NewJournalEvent` with the name of the actual
+   Journal event's Schema you are documenting.  This should have the case
+   preserved as per how it appears in actual game Journal files.
+3. Replace all instances of `newjournalevent` with the lower-case folded
+   version of this Schema's Journal event name.
+4. For new Journal-based schemas no key renames should be necessary.
+
+   If there are no renames of key names for this Schema, then edit the
+   `Key Renames` section to contain only the text `None.`.
+
+   Where such renames *are* required do **NOT** attempt to list them all here.
+   That would just require updating them both here and in the actual Schema.
+
+   If there are any, call them out in the `description` of the affected
+   property in the Schema.
+
+5. In the `Elisions` section clearly document any keys (and thus their values)
+   that are in the source data, but that should not be in the resulting EDDN
+   message.
+
+   **You do not need to list keys with a `_Localised` suffix.**
+
+6. Do **NOT** remove the `horizons and odyssey flags` section.  It is
+   mandatory that they are allowed (but are optional) in any Journal-based
+   EDDN Schema.
+
+7. If the source Journal event contains information that includes the System
+   name (possibly as `StarSystem` or `SystemName`) then you MUST include the
+   `StarPos` section in `Augmentations`.
+
+   Additionally, you must also include `StarPos` as required in the Schema
+   if the source data contains `SystemAddress`.
+
+The line:
+
+    # EDDN NewJournalEvent Schema
+
+below should ultimately be the first line in this file, after required edits.
+
+!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+
+# EDDN NewJournalEvent Schema
+
+## Introduction
+Here we document how to take data from an ED `NewJournalEvent` Journal 
+Event and properly structure it for sending to EDDN.
+
+Please consult [EDDN Schemas README](./README-EDDN-schemas.md) for general
+documentation for a schema such as this.
+
+If you find any discrepancies between what this document says and what is
+defined in the relevant Schema file you should, in the first instance, assume
+that it is the Schema file that is correct.
+**PLEASE open
+[an issue on GitHub](https://github.com/EDCD/EDDN/issues/new/choose)
+to report any such anomalies you find so that we can check and resolve the
+discrepancy.**
+
+## Senders
+The data source for this schema is the ED Journal event `NewJournalEvent`.
+
+### Key Renames
+Many of the key names have a different case defined in this schema, make 
+sure you are renaming them as appropriate.
+
+### Elisions
+None
+
+### Augmentations
+#### horizons and odyssey flags
+Please read [horizons and odyssey flags](../README-EDDN-schemas.md#horizons-and-odyssey-flags)
+over in the main Schema documentation.
+
+#### StarPos
+You MUST add a `StarPos` array containing the system co-ordinates from the 
+last `FSDJump`, `CarrierJump`, or `Location` event.
+
+## Listeners
+The advice above for [Senders](#senders), combined with the actual Schema file *should*
+provide all the information you need to process these events.
