Guides and Forms Index
Use this page as the central index for the architecture guides, page guides, and intake forms used across the editorial system.
1. Overview
The Guides and forms area supports the editorial system by grouping master references, page-specific implementation guides, and content collection forms. This index keeps those items visible in one browseable location without changing the existing navigation structure.
| Group | Purpose | Use When |
|---|---|---|
| Master Guides | Define the overall structure, taxonomy, and system rules | Planning architecture, governance, and connected page relationships |
| Page Guides | Define rules for specific editorial page types | Designing, reviewing, or updating page layouts and content standards |
| Intake Forms | Collect the content needed to build or update pages | Gathering content from stakeholders before production work begins |
