Per WordNet (which is about American English):

$ guix shell wordnet -- wn sequel -over
Overview of noun sequel
The noun sequel has 2 senses (no senses from tagged texts)
1. sequel, subsequence -- (something that follows something else)
2. sequel, continuation -- (a part added to a book or play that continues and
extends it)
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---
>> Maybe something more like "Note: In this document, ..." ?
If that sounds clearer, let’s do that!
Cc’ing maintainers to get their approval.
