@@ -234,15 +234,8 @@ As a general guideline, the lower the score, the more readable the documentation
 For example, a page that scores `12` before a set of changes, and `9` after, indicates an iterative improvement to readability. The score is not an exact science, but is meant to help indicate the
 general complexity level of the page.
 
-The readability score is calculated by using the following formula:
-
-```plaintext
-(.39 x ASL) + (11.8 x ASW) – 15.59
-```
-
-- `ASL` is average sentence length (the number of words divided by the number of sentences).
-- `ASW` is the average number of syllables per word (the number of syllables divided by the number of words).
-- The score excludes headings, code blocks, and lists.
+The readability score is calculated based on the number of words per sentence, and the number
+of syllables per word. For more information, see [the Vale documentation](https://docs.errata.ai/vale/styles#metric).
