remove a lot of the OG extra content and similar references
these are things that are not included in the core commons version
because they're homebrew, because they are a lot of writing/creativity
that I don't feel comfortable stealing/distributing, or so on. most of
Old Gus's and the community's content is removed in order to have a
near-CSRD state

what remains is the rules clarifications, errata, splicing together some
information from secondary sources (like the Starter Set or from game
authors on Twitter), and organizational assists

things removed includes ideas that I like, but either plan to write my
own way in the future, or again I just don't feel comfortable copying
verbatim, especially if, for instance, I have my own process and don't
need to advocate for a different one

stuff that's likely to get folded into my core is arbitrarily numbered
300s instead of 000s

+This CSRD differs from the OG-CSRD in some core ways: it is not a wide-reaching reference and guide to many things Cypher
+System, as Old Gus' Cypher System Reference Document is. This is an opinionated customization on top of and beyond the
+OG-CSRD; as such, editorial, custom content, links to products, and so on have been removed in creating this CSRD. It is
+meant to be one's particular flavor of the Cypher System, rather than a guide for any one to play and/or adapt the
+Cypher System. This differs from [Old Gus' editorial mission](#about-editorial-mission).
+
+Information beyond the core CSRD is provided in a variety of sidebars:
+
+::: {.alert .ps-4 .pb-0}
+Alerts include definitions, optional rules, play examples, or other useful information.
+:::
+
+::: {.og-sidebar .pt-3 .pb-1 .ps-3 .pe-3 .mt-3 .mb-3}
+Sidebars include official clarifications, context, or references to rules.
+:::
+
+::: {.alert .ps-4 .pb-0 .og-alert}
+An [index](#index) breaks down the contents of the CSRD across the chapter structure. Inline [Quick
+References](#choose-quick-reference) provide overviews chapters or important topics.
+:::
+
+::: {.og-ed .pt-3 .pb-1 .ps-3 .pe-3 .mt-3 .mb-3}
+**Editor's Notes ---** Misprints, clarifications, philosophy, commentary, or inline cross-references.
