+### Label Guidance
+
+Some things to bear in mind when defining labels in cylc-doc e.g. `.. _my-label`:
+
+**Namespace your labels**
+
+* E.g. `user-guide.something` rather than `something`.
+* (Look for existing naming patterns before defining a new one).
+
+**Labels are imported from other projects (e.g. Rose, Jupyter Server, etc)**
+* So avoid excessively vague labels where possible.
+* And only add labels where they are needed (labels are only for references,
+  they don't serve any other purpose so adding excess ones doesn't benefit
+  other things).
+
+**References resolve attach headers**
+* So if a section has the heading `Running Schedulers`, then a good label
+  might be `user-guide.running-schedulers` rather than `scheduler runtime`
+  as this gives the person using the label a better idea of how it is
+  likely to be presented.
+
+Labels are forever.
+* Other projects (e.g. metomi-docs) might use these labels!
