+Every feature or use case document should include the following content in the following sequence:
 
 - **Title**: Top-level heading with the feature name, or a use case name, which would start with
 a verb, like Configuring, Enabling, etc.
 - **Introduction**: A couple sentences about the subject matter and what's to be found on this page.
 - **Overview** Describe what it is, what it does, and in what context it should be used.
 - **Use cases**: describes real use case scenarios for that feature/configuration.
-- **Requirements**: describes what software and/or configuration is required to be able to
-  use the feature and, if applicable, prerequisite knowledge for being able to follow/implement the tutorial.
-  For example, familiarity with GitLab CI/CD, an account on a third-party service, dependencies installed, etc.
-  Link each one to its most relevant resource; i.e., where the reader can go to begin to fullfil that requirement.
-  (Another doc page, a third party application's site, etc.)
-- **Instructions**: clearly describes the steps to follow, leaving no gaps.

-  one might have when setting it up, or when something is changed, or on upgrading, it's
-  important to describe those too. Think of things that may go wrong and include them in the

-Every major feature (regardless if present in GitLab Community or Enterprise editions)
-should present, at the beginning of the document, two main sections: **overview** and
-**use cases**. Every GitLab EE-only feature should also contain these sections.
-
-**Overview**: as the name suggests, the goal here is to provide an overview of the feature.
-Describe what it is, what it does, why it is important/cool/nice-to-have,
-what problem it solves, and what you can do with this feature that you couldn't
-do before.
-
-**Use cases**: provide at least two, ideally three, use cases for every major feature.
-You should answer this question: what can you do with this feature/change? Use cases
-are examples of how this feature or change can be used in real life.

-Examples:
-
-- CE and EE: [Issues](../../user/project/issues/index.md#use-cases)
-- CE and EE: [Merge Requests](../../user/project/merge_requests/index.md)

-- EE-only: [Jenkins integration](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/integration/jenkins.html)

-Note that if you don't have anything to add between the doc title (`<h1>`) and
-the header `## Overview`, you can omit the header, but keep the content of the
-overview there.

-### Discoverability
-
-Your new document will be discoverable by the user only if:
-
-- Crosslinked from the higher-level index (e.g., Issue Boards docs
-  should be linked from Issues; Prometheus docs should be linked from
-  Monitoring; CI/CD tutorials should be linked from CI/CD examples).
-  - When referencing other GitLab products and features, link to their
-  respective docs; when referencing third-party products or technologies,
-  link out to their external sites, documentation, and resources.
-- The headings are clear. E.g., "App testing" is a bad heading, "Testing
-  an application with GitLab CI/CD" is much better. Think of something
-  someone will search for and use these keywords in the headings.
