 ===== Why profile completeness matters =====
-A complete profile improves:
-  * discoverability in the Experts directory
-  * collaboration opportunities
-  * credibility and trust
-  * correct attribution of work
-Incomplete profiles may:
+^ Profile element ^ Why it matters for discovery and visibility ^ What to watch for ^
+| Fields of interest | They help HORTUS associate you with topics, searches, and thematic communities. | Use consistent subject language and avoid overly vague terms. |
+| SSD classifications | They add formal disciplinary structure and improve retrieval precision. | Use them carefully because they influence how others understand your domain position. |
+| Expertise | They make your methods and competences visible in search, browse, and profile evaluation. | Keep them specific enough to guide real collaboration decisions. |
+| Biography and affiliation | They provide enough context for someone who does not already know you. | Write for researchers outside your immediate institutional circle. |
+| Public email visibility | It changes how directly others can contact you from the profile. | Use it only if you are comfortable with wider public contact. |
+| Open to collaborations | This is a strong signal used by other researchers when deciding whom to contact. | Turn it on if you actively welcome outreach. |
+| CV and publications | They provide evidence of scholarly work and support trust in your profile. | Keep them current enough to reflect your actual expertise. |
