Sample glossary definitions

Highlighted glossary terms get a double underline in articles and the definition will appear in a pop-up when readers hover over that term, for example, we've set up both of our mascot owls as glossary terms. Hover over either name below to view the definition:

KnowledgeOwl has two mascot owls: Linus and Athena.

You can adjust the double underline treatment and the on-hover pop-up for the definitions, as well as the look and feel when these terms and definitions are displayed in search results.
