## Summary This issue is to create a common baseline terminology list that would, then, be translated, and used to kick off a new language in the tech docs localization program. The objective is to: 1. Select a small set of source pages that would give us the highest density of foundational, GitLab-native terms 2. Extract the terms using the following terminology agent approach https://gitlab.com/explore/ai-catalog/agents/1004657/ 3. Translate the resulting list of EN terms into FR and KO to kick off translations in the beginning of May 2026. We're missing having seed GitLab core terms that we can expand on. The glossary on Quickterm is, as of today, 100% reliable and too big to edit and iterate at this point. This is not: * A fixed final termbase * The final terminology approach that we need to follow This is: * An attempt to create a baseline that would allow us to kick off FR + KO tech docs localization process through Argo-Phrase workflow. * A terminology baseline that should be iterated upon ## Selected EN pages These are mostly conceptual pages that have gone through a scraping/frequency analysis (done by Claude). They've been selected because they provide proper nouns and product-specific terms with a high repetition frequency. **Exclude:** * Step-by-step tutorials and "How to" pages — too procedural * Release notes / changelogs — noisy, version-specific * API reference pages — too technical, different vocabulary register * Troubleshooting pages — edge-case vocabulary ### List of EN pages 1.
