Required Field: If data entry is enabled, is this a required field?
Default Value: Wherever appropriate, prefill form fields with your best guesses at the values the user wants. By providing reasonable default answers to questions, you save the users work. It's really that simple. You spare the user the effort of thinking about, or typing, the answer. Filling in forms is never fun, but if this pattern halves the time it takes him to work through it, he'll be grateful. Even if the default isn't what the user wants, at least you offered an example of what kind of answer is asked for. That alone can save him a few seconds of thought -- or, worse, an error message.

Help Text:
A text field that explains what goes into it frees users from having to guess. Help should be informational and not instructional. Help text is visually separated from the main label, users who know what to do can more or less ignore the hint, and stay focused on the label and control. Also, keep the hint short. Beyond a sentence or two, many users' eyes will glaze over, and they'll ignore the text altogether. Finally, never give instructions to click anything within your description. It might not be available to click later on, and this will be extremely confusing when the help text has not been updated.
