The twelve views

The fixed chapter set of every WAD book, and which block families feed each.

Every WAD renders the same twelve chapters, so a reader always knows where a fact lives. When filing data, pick the view first:

#ViewAnswersBlock families

Freeform topics that fit no family become article blocks, filed under a view with section = :overview (etc.).

Documentation is an output, not a system. A docs site, book, or skill folder is never a system/container in view 4 — it files as a doc_item in the documentation view, recording where it's authored, what builds it, where it's hosted, and which personas it serves.
