Entries that carry a distinctionResolved

Where a term is routinely confused with another, the entry should carry the contrast rather than a bare definition. Purity and content is the obvious case. GlossaryGleb (talk) 09:40, 20 January 2026 (UTC)

Applied to purity/content, Karl Fischer/loss on drying, and contraindication/warning. ✓ Done GlossaryGaspar (talk) 13:15, 20 January 2026 (UTC)

Resolved. This thread is closed. Reopening it is fine if new sources appear; please add a new subsection rather than editing the closed discussion.

CompletenessDone

A glossary that attempts completeness becomes unmaintainable. Saying explicitly that it does not attempt it sets the right expectation. ManualOfStyleMo (talk) 10:20, 4 May 2026 (UTC)

Stated in the lead, with a pointer to the talk page for suggestions. ✓ Done GlossaryGleb (talk) 13:55, 4 May 2026 (UTC)

Done. This thread is closed. Reopening it is fine if new sources appear; please add a new subsection rather than editing the closed discussion.
