File contents

Collapse Detection

Documentation collapse = types merge inappropriately, serving no audience well.

Anti-Patterns

Tutorial Creep

Description: Tutorial explains "why" extensively | Detection: explanation >20% | Fix: extract to separate doc, link back

How-to Bloat

Description: How-to teaches basics first | Detection: teaching fundamentals before steps | Fix: link to tutorial, assume baseline

Reference Narrative

Description: Reference includes conversational prose | Detection: prose paragraphs in entries | Fix: move to explanation doc, keep factual

Explanation Task Drift

Description: Explanation ends with "do this" steps | Detection: step-by-step in explanation | Fix: move steps to how-to, link

Hybrid Horror

Description: Single doc tries all four types | Detection: 3+ quadrants in one doc | Fix: split with clear boundaries

Detection Rules

Flag collapse when:

20% content from adjacent quadrant | Two user needs served simultaneously | Ambiguous user journey stage
"Why" in tutorials | Task steps in explanations | Teaching in how-tos | Narrative in references

Problem: Should assume user knows what authentication is. Link to a tutorial instead.

Reference with Opinions

Explanation with Steps

# Why We Use Microservices
... therefore, you should: 1. Create a service, 2. Deploy it...

Problem: Steps belong in a how-to guide. The explanation should end with reasoning and link to the how-to for action.
