Glossary and Reference

@@ -16,19 +16,11 @@ paired_with: _index.es.md

Reference articles are looked up, not read front to back. Each article defines a bounded domain — what a term means, how a document genre is structured, what industry standards apply to a specific workflow. When an article in another category introduces a term or cites a standard, the canonical definition or context is in this category.

## Style guides
