13. Annotations - Short contextual notes shown below the hero of the dataset page, before the description.
    • Use these to set the data into context or hint at something readers should be aware of. A dataset can have several annotations.
    • Each annotation has:
      • Severity - The importance of the note: Info (blue), Warning (amber), or Severe warning (red). This controls the colour and icon shown on the dataset page, and the indicator pill shown on the dataset card in the collector. Defaults to Info.
      • Title - A short heading for the annotation.
      • Text - The note itself. Supports basic markdown (bold, italics, links, lists), no custom components.
      • Related Publication(s) - Optionally link publications relevant to this annotation, the same way as the dataset-level Related Publications field above.
    • Datasets with at least one annotation show a coloured indicator on their card in the datasets overview, reflecting the most severe annotation.
