+### Improvements to fields that appear in the Citation metadata block
+
+Grammar, style and consistency improvements have been made to the titles, tooltip description text, and watermarks of metadata fields that appear in the Citation metadata block.
+
+This includes fields that dataset depositors can edit in the Citation Metadata accordion (i.e. fields controlled by the citation.tsv and citation.properties files) and fields whose values are system-generated, such as the Dataset Persistent ID, Previous Dataset Persistent ID, and Publication Date fields (controlled by the bundles.properties file).
+
+The changes should provide clearer information to curators, depositors, and people looking for data about what the fields are for.
+
+A new page in the Style Guides called "Text" has also been added. The new page includes a section called "Metadata Text Guidelines" with a link to a Google Doc where the guidelines are being maintained for now since we expect them to be revised frequently.
+
