Create expanded definitions.Even a glossary can define terms generously. Customers sometimes seek a lot of answers in the glossary, because they cannot find the information elsewhere. If you are already using objects, you can put together expanded definitions, to help out. Think of all the questions that people come up with when you are trying to define a complex idea.
Few topics would demand answers to all of these questions. But if you think about it, for a particular concept, many of these questions come up, in ordinary conversation. Here, then, is a pattern for an extended definition, with every possible component, at least for now. |
