Description

# 📚 Documentation Request

## Addition
We use both `Notes` and `Note` sections in docstrings in ANTS. We should standardise how we use this by:

1. Defining a convention in the working practices
2. Updating existing docstrings to match that convention

Research direction

Start by reviewing the working-practices documentation and searching the ANTS codebase for docstrings using `Notes` or `Note`. Agree on the convention, document it in working practices, and update all existing docstrings to match; completion means the guidance and usages are consistent.
