Staff still search for "occupancy" while the official term is now "vacancy status," and an old synonym remains unmarked. What should stewards do in the glossary?
Select an answer to reveal the explanation.
Short Explanation
Language drifts—people still say the old word. Good glossaries keep synonym bridges and clearly retire obsolete terms so search works without pretending yesterday’s word is still official.
Full Explanation
Glossary lifecycle management includes synonym mapping and deliberate deprecation of obsolete terms. Stewards should mark status clearly so consumers find assets via familiar language. Retired terms must not appear as current definitions. Maintain synonyms as bridges while publishing the official current term.
