##### Italics

- Link text **MUST NOT** be styled with bold or italics. Do not wrap links in emphasis (for example, `**[Foo](/foo)**`, `_ [Foo](/foo)_`) and do not put bold or italic markup inside the link label. When the link label is a code identifier, use inline code as the label (for example, ``[`foo_bar`](/ref/foo_bar)``). (Why: links are already visually distinct; extra emphasis adds noise and makes scanning harder.) \[HIGH]
- Italics **MAY** be used for first‑mention term emphasis or titles of publications, books, papers, or standards. Avoid using italics for recurring emphasis in procedures. (Why: minimal, conventional italics aid comprehension without competing with steps.)

A guide that contains safety‑critical steps **MUST** clearly communicate all of the following, either in a page‑level safety summary, in local callouts near each step, or in combination: (Why: readers need to know the risk, scope, recovery, and safe environment before proceeding.) \[HIGH]
