Quite a while ago the SI Data Content Committee publish a document on Roles. It took us over a year and many meetings to come to an agreement on which roles to represent and what their definitions were.
It's a lot of work, but worth it in the end.

Totally! I'm going to try to get a small committee of registrars and curators together to review standards for specific fields. Has anyone else done this? Any advice???

But making them is hard, particularly because we are discovering certain topics that have never been agreed upon, so the data will be inconsistent until we're all on the same page. The process of the collaboratively hashing it out is really necessary!

Dear Fellow TMS Users,
If any of you have TMS standards or style guides that you are particularly proud of, I would love to see examples of some pages.
We are working on our guides comprehensively, and they contain so much information that formatting the pages is sometimes problematic.
Thanks in advance for any sample pages you may be able to share!
Best,
