Collection Best Practices
Naming
Good names:
- "Getting Started"
- "Billing & Payments"
- "Product Features"
Avoid:
- "Misc"
- "Other"
- "FAQ" (too vague)
Structure
| Level | Example |
|---|---|
| Broad | "Products" |
| Specific | "Scooter Models" |
| Too specific | "Model X Battery" |
Keep collections broad enough to contain multiple articles.
