+The `description` of four metadata types in `DEFAULT_METADATA_TYPE_REGISTRY`, which Setup shows under the
+type's title, is now one plain sentence for an administrator instead of ADR vocabulary:
+
+- `api`: "A stable HTTP URL that other systems call to run a flow or work with records in the app"
+- `doc`: "A help page written in Markdown that a package ships or you write yourself"
+- `book`: "A table of contents that groups help pages into ordered sections"
+- `capability`: "A permission a package defines; you grant it through permission sets"
+
+The ADR references (ADR-0121, ADR-0046, ADR-0046 §6, ADR-0066 D1) moved to the comments beside the
+registry rows. The generated metadata-forms translations carry the new sentences in en, zh-CN, ja-JP
+and es-ES. No key, type or accept/refuse result changes.
