Closes FE-3966
## I have read the
[CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/supabase/supabase/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md)
file.
YES
## Problem
- The admonition uses both 'tip' and 'note', but the visual distinction
has long-ago collapsed.
- 'Note' is used far more frequently than 'tip'
- The two are very similar and it is confusing to know which one to use
when they are visually identical
## Solution
Collapse 'tip' and 'note' into one by removing all places where there is
'tip' and updating all references to 'tip' into 'note'.
**Note:** This PR also resolves new broken links flagged by the E2E docs
checker. It may move to another PR since E2Es keep erroring.
### Specific changes
See below for an AI-generated list of changes:
- **Type system** — removed `'tip'` from `AdmonitionType`, its
`TYPE_TO_VARIANT`/`TYPE_LABEL` entries, and the test case in
[`packages/ui-patterns/src/Admonition/](packages/ui-patterns/src/Admonition/)
- **Remark plugin** —
[remarkAdmonition.ts](apps/docs/lib/mdx/plugins/remarkAdmonition.ts) now
maps mkdocs `tip` → `note`
- **Lint allowlist** — `tip` dropped from `supa-mdx-lint.config.toml`
- **Content migration** — all 109 files with `type="tip"` (across
`apps/docs`, `apps/www`, `apps/studio`) converted to `type="note"`; zero
remaining hits confirmed by repo-wide grep
- **Style guide** — `CONTRIBUTING.md` and `contributing/content.mdx`
updated to describe 4 admonition types instead of 5
### Usage before implementation
See the usage table that points toward 'note' as being dominant across
all apps:
Here's the usage table:
| Location | `note` | `tip` |
|---|---|---|
| apps/docs | ~480 | ~143 |
| apps/studio | 34 | 6 |
| apps/www (blog) | 19 | 3 |
| packages/ui-patterns (tests) | 3 | 1 (parametrized) |
| design-system / ui-library / packages/ui / packages/common | 0–1 (test
fixture only) | 0 |

Note: the `www` rows use the `zone-www-dot-com` preview host, not the
`docs` one you gave — since blog pages are served from the www app, not
docs.
## Manual testing
1. Open preview links for affected pages.
2. Inspect. Open console.
3. Paste the following in and see there is no 'Tip' on the page:
```
document.querySelectorAll('[role="alert"]').forEach(el => console.log(el.getAttribute('aria-label'), el.textContent.slice(0,60)))
```

## I have read the
[CONTRIBUTING.md](https://github.com/supabase/supabase/blob/master/CONTRIBUTING.md)
file.
YES
## Problem
We have hundreds of MDX lint warnings in our docs going against style
best practices.
## Solution
Remove and replace in context the following:
- PostgreSQL. There was only one. There was concern about exceptions,
but I found none.
- Just
- Quickly
- Actually
### What changed
Edits follow the [Google developer documentation style
guide](https://developers.google.com/style): concise, direct, active
voice. The flagged words were removed when the sentence still read well,
or replaced when meaning needed to be preserved.
### Common patterns
| Flagged word | Approach | Example |
|---|---|---|
| **just** (filler) | Removed | "you just installed" → "you installed" |
| **just** (limiting) | **only** | "just one row" → "only one row" |
| **just like** | **like** / **the same as** | "function just like
regular users" → "function like regular users" |
| **not just** | **not only** | "not just errors" → "not only errors" |
| **quickly** (performance) | **efficiently** or removed | "find rows
quickly" → "find rows efficiently" |
| **quickly** (time) | **soon** / **rapidly** / removed | "expires too
quickly" → "expires too soon" |
| **actually** (filler) | Removed | "actually execute" → "execute"; "is
actually the most common" → "is the most common" |
## Tophatting
1. See the diff.
2. See that content continues to make sense in context.
3. Locally, `cd apps/docs` and run `pnpm run lint:mdx`.
4. Search for "just," "actually," "quickly", and "PostgreSQL" and see
there are 0 warnings.
