Lots of pages! See below.

As noted within #4362:

Listings of precedence

Here are some concepts in dbt that list their precedence order:

• Global config precedence
• Materialization precedence
• Variable precedence
• Customizing a profile directory
• Customizing a state artifact directory as output
• Using a state artifact directory as input
• Setting and overriding environment variables: Order of precedence
• Model config inheritance: hierarchical precedence
• Config inheritance: hierarchical precedence
• Snapshot config inheritance: hierarchical precedence
• Multiple dispatch: For database adapter maintainers
• Multiple dispatch: For package maintainers
• node_color in docs
• loaded_at_field in docs
• materializing database objects

Some missing orders of precedence:

• Resolution order for ref when there are multiple packages with the same model name (dbt-core #8954)
• Macro precedence

What part(s) of the page would you like to see updated?

It would be good to review all of the pages above for uniformity of verbiage, ordering, and visual layout.

In order to be best understood, they should be ordered in the same way, use the same phrases, and look similar.
