Adds 55 articles (plus 76 code samples) spanning four new domains and two existing domains, extracted from the internal Business Central review-agent prompt. Content was filtered against BCQuality's remedial-knowledge premise: each article encodes BC-specific behaviour, a CodeCop rule, a platform API semantic, or an anti-false-positive guideline that a capable LLM would otherwise get wrong. New domains: - privacy (11 articles): DataClassification inheritance semantics, the StrSubstNo-defeats-Error-telemetry-classification pitfall, Privacy Notice consent for outgoing requests, anti-false-positives for pages and in-memory data. - upgrade (11 articles): upgrade-codeunit structure, upgrade-tag lifecycle and registration, protected DB reads, DataTransfer for large datasets, InitValue semantics, enum-ordinal preservation, obsolete-workflow, first-install detection. - ui (9 articles): caption capitalization by phrase type, tooltip voice, teaching-tip vs tooltip, tour-tip conventions, character limits, banned terms, ampersand handling, title punctuation. - style (11 articles): label-suffix convention, API page naming, temporary-variable prefix, label properties (Comment/Locked), named invocations, FieldCaption in user messages, OptionCaption pairing, Error-parameter passing, `this` keyword, required parentheses, file naming. Gaps in existing domains: - performance (11 articles): production-scale table catalog (no row counts, per internal-data concern), anti-false-positive for bounded tables, guard-before-Get ordering, redundant-Get-in-OnAfterGetRecord, LockTable in read-only helpers, combined ModifyAll passes, writes in OnAfterGetRecord, SetLoadFields heuristics, temporary-table regressions, FlowField source-table widening, MaintainSQLIndex disabling SIFT. - security (2 articles): environment-specific hardcoded GUIDs, ValidateTableRelation=false on user input. Intentionally excluded: specific production P95 row-count numbers (aggregated internal telemetry); rewritten as categorical guidance on which tables to treat as production-scale without publishing sizes. All articles use `bc-version: [all]` (applies to every BC version, per the new schema sentinel). Validator passes with 0 errors / 0 warnings.

Pages displaying data to permitted users are not a privacy concern
Description
Every page in Business Central displays data to an authenticated user who holds the permissions required to see it. The permission system — table permissions, entitlements, field-level restrictions where configured — is the access-control boundary. Flagging a page for showing customer emails, names, addresses, document numbers, or system audit fields treats display as a leak when it is the product's intended function.
Best Practice
Privacy review of pages is about data classification on the source table and about consent on outgoing integrations reached through page actions. Displaying business data to a user with permission to view it is correct behaviour, including on API pages that are gated by the same permission model.
Anti Pattern
Reporting "customer email is shown on the page" or "user ID visible in the list" as privacy findings. The finding does not reflect a privacy regression and redirects the author toward hiding data that the permitted user is entitled to see. The same logic produces noise on Confirm, Message, and Notification that surface business identifiers.
