Useful, well-researched list of easy-to-forget checks
From 3 comments
I see a lot of the easy-to-forget-but-we-all-know-we-should-do-them things, so bravo, thanks, and bookmarked.
jasallen on HNNice, this is a really good list. You should put this up on Github (or something) so others can submit feedback/requests/corrections/etc.

Questions
Should checks cite supporting articles or rank importance?
From 2 comments
great idea and a nice list. any links to articles that support the reasoning behind a recommendation would be useful, though definitely not neeeded for every bullet.
bellwether on HNMaybe some sort of ranking of importance, even user voting. Like when following MVP, is it critical to have X or Y at release. Thanks for the list.
