+Templates are available that capture the kinds of information
+useful for different types of projects and provide some examples of
+restructured text. We organize templates in the following way to: help authors
+understand relationships between documents; keep the user audience context in mind when writing;
+and tailor sections for different kinds of projects.
+
+**Sections** Represent a certain type of content. A section is **provided** in a repository, to
+to describe something about the characteristics, use, capability, etc. of things in that repository.
+A section may also be **referenced** from other sections and in other repositories.
+The notes in the beginning of each section template provide
+additional detail about what is typically covered and where there may be references to the section.
+
+**Collections** Are a set of sections that are typically provided for a particular type
+of project, repository, guide, reference manual, etc.
+
+You can: browse the template *collections* and *sections* below; show source to look at the Restructured
+Text and Sphinx directives used; copy the source either from a browser window
or by downloading the file in raw form from
-the `gerrit doc repository <https://gerrit.onap.org/r/gitweb?p=doc.git;a=tree;f=docs/templates;/>`_.
+the `gerrit doc repository <https://gerrit.onap.org/r/gitweb?p=doc.git;a=tree;f=docs/templates;/>`_ and
+then add them to your repository docs folder and index.rst.

In addition to these simple templates and examples
there are many open source projects (e.g. Open Daylight, Open Stack)
