Once a solid definition is put on what makes a well written glossary entry (T45893), there are a lot of glossary entries which will have to be edited to conform.
In addition there are some entries which have rather unclear or incomplete definitions (e.g. Layer) or poorly managed uses (e.g. Color Blend Modes).
As an example:
Several files all reference Color Blend Modes as a reference "for details on each blending mode".
Not only does the glossary not contain these details, but imo a glossary entry should define a term and shouldn't be used as a reference for explaining details about a particular feature.
Here's a list of entries which currently don't follow the style guide:
| Entry | Reason |
|---|---|
| Active | No definition |
| Straight Alpha | Definition not first |
| Premultiplied Alpha | Definition not first |
| Ambient Light | "It's", and could use a rewrite (where did this desk come from?) |
| Baking | Repetition |
| Boolean | Avoid using numerical characters in place of words (s/2/two) |
| Bump Mapping | Could use some simplification |
| Bézier | "It's" |
| Caustics | Very wordy, can be condensed |
| Collapse | "Is" |
| Color Blend Modes | s/2/two |
| Constraint | "It's" |
| Crease | "It's" |
| Curve | "It's" |
| Depth Of Field | "It's" |
| Diffuse Light | "It's" |
| Directional Light | "Is" |
| Double Buffer | No definition (well described otherwise though) |
| Edge | s/2/two |
| Edge Ring | s/2/two |
| Full-Screen Anti-Aliasing | Definition not first |
| Gamma | Incomplete |
| Geometric Center | Uses term in definition |
| Global Illumination | "Is" |
| Index Of Refraction | "It's" |
| Inverse Kinematics | "Is" |
| Keyframe | "It's" |
| Lattice | Repetition |
| Motion Blur | "It's" |
| Ngon | "It's" |
| NURBS | "Is" |
| Overscan | Repetition |
| Particle system | "It's" |
| Pivot Point | "It's" |
| Pole | "It's" |
| Primitive | "Is" |
| Quad | "It's" |
| Radiosity | "Is" |
| Refraction | "It's" |
| Relative Vertex Keys | No clear definition |
| Subdividing | "It's" |
| Subdivision surface | "Is" |
| Tessellation | Incomplete |
| Texture | Repetition |
| Triangle | "It's" |
| UV map | Repetition |
| Vertex | "It's" |
