To help us illustrate how to create a glossary article, let's look at the article for [[TLD]].
*The introduction to this article breaks down the acronym, gives a definition, and gives examples. This is the bear minimum to be expected from any glossary page. If the article were to stop at just the introduction we would technically be defining the term, but we'd be a long way from creating a valuable article for the term.

*The '''introduction''' to this article breaks down the acronym, gives a definition, and gives examples. This is the bear minimum to be expected from any glossary page. If the article were to stop at just the introduction we would technically be defining the term, but we'd be a long way from creating a valuable article for the term.
 
**Given that Google will help us define the term we can use that as the starting point. Searching for "TLD" will give us plenty of results that all define the term in a similar manner, read a few of these definitions, compose an original definition ('''Do not simply copy and paste'''), and cite one of the sources you used as a reference.

**Now, we have a definition of [[TLD]], but so does every other website.. so let's aim for something more substantial.
