-[IMPORTANT]
-.Fields are shared across mapping types
-=========================================
-
-Mapping types are used to group fields, but the fields in each mapping type
-are not independent of each other. Fields with:
-
-* the _same name_
-* in the _same index_
-* in _different mapping types_
-* map to the _same field_ internally,
-* and *must have the same mapping*.
-
-If a `title` field exists in both the `user` and `blogpost` mapping types, the
-`title` fields must have exactly the same mapping in each type. The only
-exceptions to this rule are the <<copy-to>>, <<dynamic>>, <<enabled>>,
-<<ignore-above>>, <<include-in-all>>, and <<properties>> parameters, which may
-have different settings per field.
-
-Usually, fields with the same name also contain the same type of data, so
-having the same mapping is not a problem. When conflicts do arise, these can
-be solved by choosing more descriptive names, such as `user_title` and
-`blog_title`.
