-The ForwardingHint element contains a list of name delegations, as defined in :ref:`link` section.
-Each delegation implies that the requested Data packet can be retrieved by forwarding the Interest along the delegation path.
+The ForwardingHint element contains a list of Names ("delegations").
+Presence of the forwarding hint implies that Data can be retrieved by forwarding the Interest over path(s) pointed by the listed Names.
 Specifics of the forwarding logic for Interests with ``ForwardingHint`` will be defined in a separated document.

-Link Object is a data packet, whose content contains a list of one or more name delegations: a pair of name and the associate priority.
-The LinkObject can be used to derive the ``ForwardingHint`` guider of an Interest packet.
+Link Object is a data packet, whose content is a list of one or more names (formerly known as "delegations").
+The LinkObject can be used to derive the ``ForwardingHint`` of an Interest packet.
 
-The list of delegations in ``LinkContent`` SHOULD be ordered by preference value in ascending order (i.e., the lowest value first).
+The list of Names in ``LinkContent`` SHOULD be ordered by the producer's preference, with the most preferred by the producer listed first.
