Inconsistencies in "Make a note on ..." instructions #185

Open rbms-bsc opened 1 year ago

rbms-bsc commented 1 year ago

Instructions with "make a note on ..." should be reviewed for consistency. Some instructions use "justify," others "give the basis." These should be more normalized.

Need to further investigate phrasing of note, particularly around constructions where we give instructions on information contained in a note (such as "explanatory note" or "to give the basis of"). This phrasing varies.

Phrasing is inconsistent in instructions to make a note. As a BSC reviewer commented: "while "Note on extent ..." already specifies note in its name, it seems inconsistent to not use similar language in this section-- something like "record in a note on Details of illustrative content" -- conversely, you could use "note" in both instances with the appropriate "(see Element, Rule number)" throughout the document."
