 ===== Worldgen Registered Objects =====
+The following diagram shows various objects that participate in defining world generation, and where they are registered/defined.
+The general rule of thumb is that ''Registry'' will contain objects that contain some form of custom code, while BuiltInRegistry contains built-in data objects that mostly reference code objects from an associate Registry by ID and sometimes add configuration data.
+As an example:
+  * Vanilla registers an instance of the class ''OreFeature'' under the ID ''minecraft:ore'' in ''Registry.Feature''.
+  * Vanilla then registers 21 configured features in ''BuiltInRegistries.CONFIGURED_FEATURE'' that reference ''minecraft:ore'', and configure it differently (for example ''minecraft:ore_iron'' to place iron ore)
+For use in an actual world, all data objects from ''BuiltInRegistries'' will be copied by value into a new ''DynamicRegistryManager'' and may be overridden by JSON files in enabled data packs.
