Connect pages, headings and issues

A project page becomes more useful when readers can follow its sources and actions. Link a supporting page or heading, connect an existing issue, and inspect the references in both directions. Use Links and references to check where each connection leads and help the next reader continue from the right place.

Prepare a meaningful destination

Create or open a supporting project page, give it a specific title, and add headings for the sections another reader may need. For example, put interview findings under Evidence and constraints under Risks. Save the page and open the brief that will refer to it. Clear destination titles make the later picker and incoming-reference list much easier to understand.

What you will have

A document whose sources, related work and exact sections can be reached and checked.
