@dmcilvaney What feedback are you looking for? Are these really placeholders? And if so, does that mean corrections / clarifications aren't useful?

@dmcilvaney What feedback are you looking for? Are these really placeholders? And if so, does that mean corrections / clarifications aren't useful?

For the placeholders themselves, no, unless you have feedback on the meta structure. This is mostly just a foundational set of instructions which the nitty gritty stuff to follow. I just wanted to ensure there was 'something' in place when adding a reference to it.
