Poem

🐰 A table trimmed and tidy, neat,
Hints in boxes, spare and sweet,
Windows stats now neatly shown,
Permissions noted, exporters known.
Docs hop forward — soft and fleet.

25-30: Metric descriptions properly punctuated.

All metric category descriptions now consistently end with periods, improving documentation consistency and readability.

---

5-9: Info hint block correctly replaces Notes section.

The conversion from a plain "Notes" heading to a formatted info hint block improves visual hierarchy and aligns with GitBook documentation conventions. The content clearly indicates Windows-only availability and permission requirements.

---

95-99: The file windows-exporter-metrics.md exists at pipeline/inputs/windows-exporter-metrics.md, so the link reference in the hint block is valid and no action is required.

5-9: Minor observation: Consider consolidating redundant information across hint blocks.

Both the hint block at the introduction (lines 5-9) and the hint block at the end (lines 95-103) contain overlapping information about Windows-only status and permission requirements. While this duplication may be intentional (early warning + detailed reference after examples), you might consider whether consolidation would improve clarity. The current structure is acceptable and follows common technical documentation patterns, but monitor for potential user confusion from the repeated messages.

Also applies to: 95-103

25-30: Well-formatted metric descriptions with proper punctuation.

All metric descriptions in the table now consistently end with periods, improving documentation clarity and meeting documentation standards.

---

95-103: Proper conversion of Notes section to structured info hint block.

The hint block is well-formatted with correct opening/closing tags and appropriately integrates the "Windows only" phrasing (without hyphen) as specified in the PR objectives. The addition of the Windows Exporter Metrics plugin reference provides helpful guidance for users needing Prometheus-based metrics collection. The referenced file windows-exporter-metrics.md exists in the repository at pipeline/inputs/windows-exporter-metrics.md.
