I think the guideline is missing this important part.

3. Conclusion - tell what you told and recap the main points.
4. References - link to related articles and external resources so people can read and learn more about the topic.
1. Brief introduction - a paragraph or two so you get the basic idea about - the what and why.
2. Structure description for the "Main Content" - the how - how you will tell it in a brief paragraph (e.g. a new plugin or a webpack concept)

Yeah we should mention that somehow -- something like:

5. References - Use the `related` key in the YAML frontmatter at the top of the file. See the _Frontmatter_ section below for more information.

And then we should add a Frontmatter section that documents title, sort, contributors and related.
