Problem: help-center articles often assume too much context and overload users with dense instruction blocks.

Why it matters: unclear troubleshooting steps increase ticket volume and time-to-resolution.

Before/after example: convert one dense troubleshooting paragraph into ordered actionable steps.

Next step: prioritize top-traffic articles and rerun readability checks after each update.
