Team's Response

This is a duplicate issue. However, the titles of the tooltip "common mistake" and "caution" have distinct definitions as such it should not be confusing for most people, even when the background colour of the tooltip is the same. The icons are also different.

The 'Original' Bug

[The team marked this bug as a duplicate of the following bug]

Docs: No breakdown of the different types of tooltips available

Note from the teaching team: This bug was reported during the Part II (Evaluating Documents) stage of the PE. You may reject this bug if it is not related to the quality of documentation.


  • There should be a breakdown of the different types of tooltips and what they represent so that the user knows what to read and what each colour/tooltip means ahead of time/before the UG starts.

  • Without it, it's possible for the user to be confused. What is the difference between common mistakes and caution?

  • Does caution have a higher severity, or does warning do? Both of these are synonyms, and there's no clear hierarchy between them, causing confusion without clarification.

Their Response to the 'Original' Bug

[This is the team's response to the above 'original' bug]

We decided to reject this report due to the following reasons.

  • We believe that the name of our tooltips are clear enough for users to understand their respective meanings, e.g common mistakes are the common mistakes that a user can make
  • It would be very unlikely that the user is confused by “common mistake” and “caution” as they have very different definitions.
  • As for the severity of caution vs warning, we believe that based on their symbols and colours, it is intuitive to know the hierarchy between them. The icon used for warning is 2 exclamation marks that obviously signal a higher level of severity than a single exclamation mark from caution.
