[X] I agree to follow this project's code of conduct.
Description of request
We've talked about the difference between reference/conceptual docs and articles in several meetings. We should record this in the repo for our memory and guidance for new contributors.
Docs: Primarily objective reference and conceptual topics that fit into a single organizing hierarchy. Docs have a well-defined outline which forms the navigation of the docs section of the site. Docs should be presenting objective information, with the large exception of a main objective for the site, which is advocacy for web components.
Articles: Articles basically everything else (that is not covered in specific top-level section of the site, like /about). They are a loose collection of topics that may have one or more of the following traits:
News or announcements
Otherwise not evergreen and relevant for a point-in time ("New web component features in Safari 16")
