 This project seeks to find a safe way to have a mobile robot move from point A to
 point B. It can also be applied in other applications that involve robot navigation, like following dynamic points. 
 This will complete dynamic path planning, compute velocities for motors,
-avoid obstacles, and structure recovery behaviors. To learn more about this project see :ref:`about`.
+avoid obstacles, and structure recovery behaviors.
+To learn more about this project, such as related projects, robots using, ROS1 comparison, and maintainers, see :ref:`about`.
 
 Navigation 2 uses behavior trees to call modular servers to complete an action.
 An action can be to compute a path, control effort, recovery, or any other navigation
