What does this PR do?

Previously, the abbreviations.yml file housed the Latin abbreviations. This update adds new abbreviations and splits the abbreviations off into two different files:

  • latinabbreviations.yml contains the rule for Latin abbreviations (.e.g., i.e.)
  • abbreviations.yml contains the new rule for common industry terms

Also adds a description to each Datadog style file.

Motivation

The Technical Content team recently updated their list of abbreviations that don't need to be spelled out, which is relevant to the docs as well.

Release

  • YES, this PR requires a release
  • NO, this PR doesn't need a release

Additional Notes


Release checklist

  • Create zip files for EACH style folder.
  • Attach the zip files when creating a release.

Spot tested these on my machine and they work beautifully! I love how they're not case sensitive, so both artificial intelligence and Artificial Intelligence will get the same flag to change it to AI ✨
