Elaboration

Elaboration (from Latin ex- "out" + laborare "to labor") is the act of adding more information to existing information to create a more complex, emergent whole.^[1]^{[need quotation to verify]}^{[page needed]} Elaboration is the variant of development implementation: creating new structure relations, putting together, drawing up.^[2]^[3] It can be defined as adding details or "expanding on" an idea. It involves developing an idea by incorporating details to amplify the original simple idea. Elaboration enhances ideas and objects by providing nuance and detail.^[4]^[5]^[6] Elaboration may involve planning or executing a task with painstaking attention to numerous parts or details.
