# Term References

References display a list of links or mentions made to this specific term from other catalog objects (Tables, Files, Reports)  or governance Objects (Terms, Tags,  Data Stories, etc.). The "@" notation is used in text fields within the application, such as the Business Description, Technical Description, Endorsement Rating, Conversations, Projects - Notes, and Data Stories fields, to make these references.

This makes it easy for users to understand how the term is used throughout the system, allowing them to navigate to those objects for more details quickly. It's a simple way to ensure users always know where a term is referenced.
