-### Language to avoid
-
-When creating documentation, limit or avoid the use of the following verb
-tenses, words, and phrases:
-
-- Avoid jargon when possible, and when not possible, define the term or
- [link to a definition](#links-to-external-documentation).
-- Avoid uncommon words when a more-common alternative is possible, ensuring that
-  content is accessible to more readers.
-- Don't write in the first person singular.
-  (Tested in [`FirstPerson.yml`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/doc/.vale/gitlab/FirstPerson.yml).)
-  <!-- vale gitlab.FirstPerson = NO -->
-  - Instead of _I_ or _me_, use _we_, _you_, _us_, or _one_.
-  <!-- vale gitlab.FirstPerson = YES -->
-  - When possible, stay user focused by writing in the second person (_you_ or
-    the imperative).
-- Don't overuse "that". In many cases, you can remove "that" from a sentence
-  and improve readability.
-- Avoid use of the future tense:
-  - Instead of `after you execute this command, GitLab will display the result`, use
-    `after you execute this command, GitLab displays the result`.
-  - Only use the future tense to convey when the action or result actually
-    occurs at a future time.
-- Don't use slashes to clump different words together or as a replacement for
-  the word "or":
-  - Instead of "and/or," consider using "or," or use another sensible
-    construction.
-  - Other examples include "clone/fetch," author/assignee," and
-    "namespace/repository name." Break apart any such instances in an
-    appropriate way.
-  - Exceptions to this rule include commonly accepted technical terms, such as
-    CI/CD and TCP/IP.
-<!-- vale gitlab.LatinTerms = NO -->
-- We discourage the use of Latin abbreviations and terms, such as _e.g._,
-  _i.e._, _etc._, or _via_, as even native users of English can misunderstand
-  those terms. (Tested in [`LatinTerms.yml`](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/blob/master/doc/.vale/gitlab/LatinTerms.yml).)
-  - Instead of _i.e._, use _that is_.
-  - Instead of _via_, use _through_.
-  - Instead of _e.g._, use _for example_, _such as_, _for instance_, or _like_.
-  - Instead of _etc._, either use _and so on_ or consider editing it out, as
-    it can be vague.
-<!-- vale gitlab.LatinTerms = YES -->
-<!-- vale gitlab.CurrentStatus = NO -->
-- Avoid using the word *currently* when talking about the product or its
-  features. The documentation describes the product as it is, and not as it
-  is planned to be in some indeterminate point in the future.
-<!-- vale gitlab.CurrentStatus = YES -->
-- Avoid using the word *scalability* when talking about increasing GitLab
-  performance for additional users. The words scale or scaling are sometimes
-  acceptable, but references to increasing GitLab performance for additional
-  users should direct readers to the GitLab
-  [reference architectures](../../../administration/reference_architectures/index.md)
-  page.
-- Avoid all forms of the phrases *high availability* and *HA*, and instead
-  direct readers to the GitLab [reference architectures](../../../administration/reference_architectures/index.md)
-  for information about configuring GitLab to have the performance needed for
-  additional users over time.
-- Don't use profanity or obscenities. Doing so may negatively affect other users
-  and contributors, which is contrary to the GitLab value of
-  [Diversity, Inclusion, and Belonging](https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/values/#diversity-inclusion).
-- Avoid the use of [racially-insensitive terminology or phrases](https://www.marketplace.org/2020/06/17/tech-companies-update-language-to-avoid-offensive-terms/). For example:
-  - Use *primary* and *secondary* for database and server relationships.
-  - Use *allowlist* and *denylist* to describe access control lists.
-- Avoid the word _please_. For details, see the [Microsoft style guide](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/style-guide/a-z-word-list-term-collections/p/please).
-<!-- vale gitlab.Simplicity = NO -->
-- Avoid words like _easily_, _simply_, _handy_, and _useful._ If the user
-  doesn't find the process to be these things, we lose their trust.
-<!-- vale gitlab.Simplicity = YES -->
-
-### Word usage clarifications
-
-- Don't use "may" and "might" interchangeably:
-  - Use "might" to indicate the probability of something occurring. "If you
-    skip this step, the import process might fail."
-  - Use "may" to indicate giving permission for someone to do something, or
-    consider using "can" instead. "You may select either option on this
-    screen." Or, "You can select either option on this screen."
