+Literal Include
+---------------
+
+This feature is used often in the Release Guide, but there are other places it could be useful.
+Using a literal include ensures only having to update the documentation in one place.
+It is important to use a relative path (i.e. "../../") to get to the correct 
+directory of the file being referenced in the literal include.  This will keep the 
+file linking to the correct version and branch.  
+
+As an example, refer to the METplus User's Guide.  See this 
+`line <https://github.com/dtcenter/METplus/blob/46f705fc2c1b861e3aa6314d030eb9b4c382d0b3/docs/use_cases/met_tool_wrapper/PointStat/PointStat.py#L55>`_ 
+in the PointStat Wrapper Use Case documentation, which uses RST's :code:`.. literalinclude::` 
+and renders the text of the referenced file in this 
+`section <https://metplus.readthedocs.io/en/develop/generated/met_tool_wrapper/PointStat/PointStat.html#metplus-configuration>`_.

+Substitution References
+-----------------------
+
+Substitution references are replacements in the text as defined in the :code:`rst_epilog` 
+in the **docs/conf.py** file.  For example, instead of hard coding the MET version in 
+the METplus documentation, a variable :code:`met_version` can be set to a value 
+(e.g. 12.0.0) in the **docs/conf.py** file in the following way:
+
+.. code-block:: ini
+
+  met_version = 12.0.0
+
+Then, this variable is used in the :code:`rst_epilog` to set up the substitution, 
+along with other variables.  For example, in the **docs/conf.py** 
+file the following is defined:
+
+.. code-block:: ini
+
+  rst_epilog = f"""
+  .. |copyright|    replace:: {copyright}
+  .. |author_list|  replace:: {author_list}
+  .. |release_date| replace:: {release_date}
+  .. |release_year| replace:: {release_year}
+  .. |release_info| replace:: {release_info}
+  .. |python_version| replace:: {python_version}
+  .. |met_version| replace:: {met_version}
+  """
+
+The value 12.0.0 would then be replaced in the documentation wherever 
+:code:`|met_version|` is used in .rst files.  For example:
+
+.. code-block:: ini
+
+  MET version |met_version| or above 
+
+There are some 
+`reserved substitution variables <https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/usage/restructuredtext/roles.html#substitutions>`_ 
+in Sphinx.  These variables are 
+:code:`|release|`, :code:`|version|`, :code:`|today|`, and 
+:code:`|translation progress|`. Reserved substitution variables do not 
+need to be added to :code:`rst_epilog`, but other variables do.
+
+See 
+`Substitutions <https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/usage/restructuredtext/basics.html#substitutions>`_ 
+and
