 === Health ===
+Health can be one of:
+; OK: Standard operating mode.  If all is going as expected and there are no obstacles to progressing on work, the feature's health is "OK".
+; Blocked: If there is something blocking progress on this feature for whatever reason, select this value.
+; At Risk: If this feature is targeted for a particular release but is at risk of missing that release, select this value.
+If you change the health value for a feature, please explain the situation in the "Status note" so people who are tracking the feature have some idea of what's going on.  It doesn't need to be a really long note, just a quick summary is fine -- folks can follow up with you if needed.
 === Status note ===
-A quick note about current status/stage or next steps required to progress.
+A quick summary of the current status/stage or next steps required to progress.

 === Priority ===
+The basic priority buckets:
+; Unprioritized: The Product team hasn't yet set a priority for this feature.
+; P1: This feature is very important and should be started as soon as resources are available.
+; P2: This feature is important, but it doesn't need to be started right away.
+; P3: This feature is important, but depends on another feature to be completed first, or is something we are hoping to get a little further down the road.
 === Roadmap ===
+Not every feature will be associated with a particular Roadmap, but those that are should have that Roadmap specified here.
+If the dropdown list doesn't include the name of the Roadmap you need, please contact [[User:Dria|Deb]], and she'll help get that added to the form.
 === Feature List ===
+Feature list is one of:
+* Desktop
+* Mobile
+* Platform
+* Services
+* Jetpack
+* Firefox Home
+* Other
+If you're not sure which feature list a feature should be on, either make your best guess or leave this value blank, and we'll sort it out in triage.
 === Engineering Team ===
+The primary team that will be implementing this feature.  If there are multiple teams involved, pick whichever will need to work on it first/next.
 == Team status notes ==
