A glossary should include the source term, translation, context and approver. Prioritise product names, components and terms that affect meaning. Flag unresolved choices before they spread throughout the document.
Control quality with clear sources and traceable feedback
Define completeness, consistent terminology, source-accurate figures and suitable formatting. Choose a terminology approver and consolidate comments. When preferences conflict, return to context and references before making global replacements. Track changes by version so the final deliverable does not mix superseded choices.
Preparation checklist
- Approved sources and file inventory.
- Terms, names and protected content.
- Acceptance criteria and content approver.
- Feedback with location, reason and resolution status.
Illustrative scenario
One component has commercial and technical names. The client approves each use, and the team records the distinction to prevent inconsistent chapter-by-chapter choices.
Frequently asked question
Should a large project start with a sample?
A representative sample can establish terminology and style. Choose real complexity rather than only the easiest page.
