 These two terms are often used interchangeably, and what they are attempting to
 convey is the answer to the question "Can this item be used at this location?"
 
+r[vis.name-hierarchy]
 Rust's name resolution operates on a global hierarchy of namespaces. Each level
 in the hierarchy can be thought of as some item. The items are one of those
 mentioned above, but also include external crates. Declaring or defining a new
 module can be thought of as inserting a new tree into the hierarchy at the
 location of the definition.
 
+r[vis.privacy]
 To control whether interfaces can be used across modules, Rust checks each use
 of an item to see whether it should be allowed or not. This is where privacy
 warnings are generated, or otherwise "you used a private item of another module
 and weren't allowed to."

 By default, everything is *private*, with two exceptions: Associated
 items in a `pub` Trait are public by default; Enum variants
 in a `pub` enum are also public by default. When an item is declared as `pub`,

+r[vis.scoped.intro]
 In addition to public and private, Rust allows users to declare an item as
 visible only within a given scope. The rules for `pub` restrictions are as
 follows:
+
+r[vis.scoped.in]
 - `pub(in path)` makes an item visible within the provided `path`.
   `path` must be a simple path which resolves to an ancestor module of the item whose visibility is being declared.
   Each identifier in `path` must refer directly to a module (not to a name introduced by a `use` statement).
+
+r[vis.scoped.crate]
 - `pub(crate)` makes an item visible within the current crate.
+
+r[vis.scoped.super]
 - `pub(super)` makes an item visible to the parent module. This is equivalent
   to `pub(in super)`.
+
+r[vis.scoped.self]
 - `pub(self)` makes an item visible to the current module. This is equivalent
 to `pub(in self)` or not using `pub` at all.

 When re-exporting a private item, it can be thought of as allowing the "privacy

 the namespace hierarchy as it normally would.
