Meeting minutes should include clear action items, an unbiased record of the meeting, and all of the basic information such as attendees, date, time, and location. If someone arrived late, be sure to note what time they came. Similarly, if an invited attendee wasn't able to make it, make a note of that.  Organize the notes to be as skimmable as possible. Do this by editing long paragraphs into shorter bullet-point lists. Make your text more skimmable by using bold, italics, and underlines to make it easier to find various sections.  Include all action points, who is responsible for accomplishing them, and if there is a deadline.
