48 +Documentation on [[xwiki.org>>https://www.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Main/WebHome]] must follow the [[Diataxis>>https://diataxis.fr/]] methodology, which is a way of organizing the documentation.
49 +In Diataxis, all documentation Pages are of one of 4 types:
50 +
51 +* Tutorials - learning-oriented experiences
52 +* How-to guides - goal-oriented directions
53 +* Reference - information-oriented technical description
54 +* Explanation - understanding-oriented discussion
55 +
56 +In addition, documentation Pages are segmented into three target audiences to make it easier for readers to find relevant content based on their usage profile:
57 +
58 +* User
59 +* Administrator
60 +* Developer
61 +
62 +In order to apply Diataxis, split documentation Pages by type, and target. This is done by adding an ##xobject## of the [[##Documentation XClass##>>XWikiOrg.DocumentationClass]] to each documentation Page.
63 +
64 +Below is an example of a documentation Page where the ##xproperties## have been set using the ##XWikiOrg.DocumentationClass:##

48 48  Any documentation can become obsolete or just not be good enough from your point of view. In these cases, if you want to upgrade/improve the documentation, you shouldn't make changes directly in the documentation page. Rewriting the documentation can take very long and nobody wants to have unbaked bread. Please proceed as follows:
