Parks and Public Works both publish conflicting glossary definitions for "asset." Catalog searches return both and confuse staff. What should happen next?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Two dictionaries fighting over the same word wreck findability. Critical term conflicts need a governed decision—not a coin flip—so the catalog can point everyone to one meaning.
Full Explanation
Competing definitions for shared critical terms undermine glossary and catalog usefulness. Governance forums such as stewards and councils resolve conflicts and publish the authoritative definition. Losing or mapping alternate meanings prevents search from returning contradictory guidance. Catalog usefulness depends on that governed resolution for terms like asset.
