Right, but there is no clear way to draw the distinction. "Technical instructions" blend into policy instructions without any clear line at all. Besides, the word "Help" does not describe technical instructions somehow ''better'' than it describes policy and process instructions. This is just a plain old simplification move. We need to do a lot of simplification... --[[User:Larry Sanger|Larry Sanger]] 20:38, 3 September 2007 (CDT) | |||
