Short explanations, comparisons, glossaries, and practical notes.

Type: Reference noteVersion: v7

Plain-language explanation

Reference is a practical concept page. Use it to align language before writing a workflow, policy, or review record.

How to apply it

  1. Keep definitions operational rather than academic.
  2. Tie the term to decisions people actually make.
  3. Use examples and counterexamples when confusion is likely.

Expected output

A plain-language reference note that helps users choose the right workflow, policy, or template.

Common failure mode

Keeping the document as a form instead of using it to make decisions visible.

Use notes

Use withLink this note from workflows and policies where the term affects decisions.
AvoidDo not turn definitions into rules unless a policy page owns the requirement.
Review pointRevise when repeated questions show the explanation is still ambiguous.
