I just wanted to point out that role is very vague. If you add the sentence that you wrote "think about how important this item is so that we can better prioritise the work." is much more precise and helpful :)

* What would you like to have? Add as much information as possible so we can understand the problem at any time.
* How does it benefit your work? This helps us to understand the value of the story and how to prioritise the work.

To help you formulating your story you can use one of the following phrases:
* As <role> I want <capability> so I can <value>
* <action> the <result> <by|for|of|to> a(n) <object>

What's the Triage phase again?

This section is filled later when the story is in triage:
* Ask all relevant questions to understand the functionality, its dependencies and implications.
* Estimate the work and split if necessary.
* Define specifications in form of testable acceptance criteria.

- [ ] test 1
- [ ] test 2
- [ ] test 3
In triage phase it is important to ask all relevant questions about the story such that everyone understands the functionality of the story, as well as its implications and dependencies. The story will then be estimated and possibly split into smaller components. Further, the triage team has to write down the story specifications in form of acceptance criteria that need to be tested. After completing the triage phase the issue will be handed to the dev team.
