Meta Format

Is there a document that states best practice for typing meta? This would include when to use commas, underscores for phrases, etc. Basically, how to do meta for a knowledge article out of the box best practices.

ok, so I think this is the answer: Commas for combined words and single words e.g.: statement of work, statement and quotation marks for sentences e.g.: "How do I update my Outlook profile?"

It would be really helpful if ServiceNow could provide some guidance on this. The blog referenced is really useful, as is the discussion it generated, however it is now six years old.

I'm trying to train our teams to utilise meta more frequently, and I don't feel I have all the information I need in order to make best use of the field.

Is there someone to reach out to as to obtain an actual, updated answer? As noted, that article is 6 years old.
