Why use a Glossary?
The Glossary is your site's custom repository for definitions and explanations of words, phrases, and terms that are used within your organization. It can be a valuable resource in which veterans and experts can share their knowledge, especially technical terms and industry jargon that other might be unfamiliar with.
To learn more about this optional feature, see Site Glossary.
