 #### Thread safety
 * Classes should be immutable where possible
 * Classes that may be used by multiple threads must be thread-safe
-* If a class is used by a single thread and is not thread-safe, add a comment
+* If a class is not thread-safe, annotate it @NotThreadSafe
 * Fields that are used by multiple threads must be volatile or guarded by locks
-* If a field or method is guarded by a lock, add a comment
+* If a field or method is guarded by a lock, add a comment, e.g. `// Locking: foo`
 
 #### Visibility
 * Minimise the visibility of classes, fields and methods
-* Fields should be private or protected
+* Fields should usually be private, with getters and setters if needed
 * Fields should be final where possible
 * Inner classes should be static where possible
