## Content: what belongs in the docs
In docs, we share any and all helpful information, processes, and tips with customers.
There is no reason to withhold 'risky' steps and store them in another
location; simply include them in the docs with all necessary detail including
sufficiently specific warnings and caveats.
Any content that is relevant to users, admins, or IT decision-makers may be included.
You can freely include presentations, videos, etc.; no matter who it was originally written for,
if it is helpful to any of our audiences, we can include it.
See the
[
Documentation Structure
](
structure.md
)
page for further details and a sample document template.
Note that a
`Troubleshooting`
section in doc pages is part of that default template
and can freely be added to any page.
These guidelines help toward the goal of having every user's search of documentation
yield a useful result.
