TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
The Glossary tag sounds almost like a solution in search of a problem.
I'm assuming that you include the definition inline, but that it shows
up not there but in the "Glossary" section.
Perhaps it would be helpful with multiple authors so that all could
contribute to the glossary without the need for a pile of separate
glossary work at the end of the writing effort. Still would have to
winnow out duplicate and conflicting definitions, including of trying to
figure out, "Now where was this word defined? Oh, no, that's not the bad
definition of it, it must be in one of the other files."
