-"Write about what you know. To each is specialty*. It is important to stick to the themes defined in the additional charter of your site. Don't scatter on topics outside the scope and be faithful to the editorial line defined at the beginning" - *I read it in an article and I do not understand what does it mean. Can anybody explain ?

    Could you proved the context of the quote? The full sentence or ones before or after would be helpful. I tried searching that phrase on Google and there were 0 exact matches – katatahito Jul 10 '19 at 06:37
  • Shure -"Write about what you know. To each is specialty. It is important to stick to the themes defined in the additional charter of your site." – Vitaly Nikitin Jul 10 '19 at 06:46

    (You should add the quote to the question and not just in a comment) Where does this come from? my first thought is that it is a typo and meant to be "to each his specialty" , which is probably an unidiomatic way of say to each his own, meaning the third definition they give: One has the right to one's personal preference. – katatahito Jul 10 '19 at 06:50

    Is there an 'a' before speciality or not? It affects the probable answer –  Jul 10 '19 at 07:10
  • No there is no an 'a' before speciality – Vitaly Nikitin Jul 10 '19 at 07:43

    Please, please, please *link* to the quote. It reads as though it's a not-particularly-good translation (perhaps from Russian). Also, the quote in the question title does not match the quote in the body of the question. – Andrew Leach Jul 10 '19 at 08:39
  • Sorry, I can't because of the article on a paper, I printed it. – Vitaly Nikitin Jul 10 '19 at 09:16

    It could be a simple misprint for "To each his specialty" (see the answer from Balaz2ta), but there's not really any way of knowing. – Andrew Leach Jul 10 '19 at 09:19
  • Ah, ok it makes sense, probably it is a misprint – Vitaly Nikitin Jul 10 '19 at 11:42

This sounds like an attempt at referencing "To Each his own"

From Merriam-Webster:

used to say that other people are free to like different things

In this case - it means you are free to write to what your specialty is. This is how I would understand it, given the context.
