+`applies_to` tags are rendered as badges in the documentation output. They reproduce the "key + lifecycle status + version" indicated in the content sources.

+* `Deprecation planned` (if the lifecycle is deprecated)
+* `Removal planned` (if the lifecycle is removed)

+This is computed at build time (there is a docs build every 30 minutes). The documentation team tracks and maintains released versions for these products centrally.

+When multiple lifecycle statuses and versions are specified in the sources, several badges are shown.

-The way that you contribute to the docs depends on the product version.
+Because the new documentation site only hosts documentation for newer releases, the way that you contribute depends on the version that you want to document.
 
 For a list of versions covered on [elastic.co/docs](https://www.elastic.co/docs), refer to [Find docs for your product version](/get-started/versioning-availability.md#find-docs-for-your-product-version). Versions prior to the versions listed on that page are documented on our legacy system, [elastic.co/guide](https://www.elastic.co/guide).
