It's a glossary. Self-explanatory, hopefully. Terms within should be domain-specific jargon.

Guidelines for Contributors

All glossary definitions should exist in the Glossary: namespace and use this template. For example, the GunCAD glossary entry is composed like so:

{{GlossaryTerm
 | term = GunCAD
 | definition = The concept of and community surrounding DIY firearms and the sharing of their plans online
}}

This enforces consistency and ensures everything's in the right category (this one).

All glossary entries should have their page titles and term names capitalized.

Citing the Glossary

To cite a Glossary entry in an article, use this template in place of the word you wanna mark up. For example:

{{Glossary|GunCAD}}
{{Glossary|GunCAD|guncad}}

You can use this for glossary entries that do not exist and they will be added to the wanted pages list appropriately.
