Description

Currently, the website seen when replying as an assistant provides no information as to what constitutes as an appropriate and inappropriate reply. The only link is next to the header and leads to this, which obviously doesn't help much. I suspect that many unusable replies don't come from bad actors, but rather from people unfamiliar with the guidelines. The fastest solution to facilitate which criteria apply to the submitted answers would be to either include a list or a clearly identifiable link right between the prompt and the textbox, so users can easily reference the rules and see if their reply would violate any of them.
Ideally, examples can give people a better idea and interactivity like messages that ask the user if their submission doesn't violate any of the guidelines can help even more, but this would be a quick and easy way to make sure every user is at least confronted with the criteria.

Research direction

Start at the website screen used for replying as an assistant and review the linked reply guidelines at projects.laion.ai/Open-Assistant/docs/tasks/reply_as_assistant. Place a clearly identifiable guidelines list or link between the prompt and reply textbox, and verify that users can access the criteria before submitting a reply.
