      <maml:para>Similar modules, or different versions of the same module, often contain duplicate content.</maml:para>
      <maml:para>Merge-MarkdownHelp merges the multiple markdown files into a single markdown file. It uses the `applicable:` yaml metadata field to identify what versions or tags are applicable. It acts on two levels: for the whole cmdlet and for individual parameters.</maml:para>
      <maml:para>The resulting markdown contains the `applicable:` tags as well as all of the content of the original markdown files. Duplicate content is simply ignored. Content that is unique to each file is merged using merge markers , followed by a comma-separated list of applicable tags. A merge marker is a string of text that acts as a marker to describe the content that was merged. The default merge marker text consists of three exclamation points !!! however this can be changed to any relevant text using the -MergeMarker flag.</maml:para>

      <maml:para>The Update-MarkdownHelp cmdlet updates PlatyPS markdown help files without completely replacing the content of the files.</maml:para>
      <maml:para>Some parameter attributes change over time. For instance, parameter sets, types, default value, and required. This cmdlet updates markdown help to reflect those changes. It also adds placeholder text to the markdown file for any new parameter.</maml:para>
      <maml:para>To propagate changes to your markdown help files, do the following:</maml:para>
      <maml:para>- Load the new version of the module into your Windows PowerShell session.</maml:para>
      <maml:para>- Run the Update-MarkdownHelp cmdlet to update the files. - Check new parameters metadata in the markdown files.</maml:para>
