| Time series charts help you track how metrics change over time so you can spot trends, seasonality, and anomalies. In Lens, time series visualizations are typically built with **Line**, **Area**, or **Bar** charts, depending on whether you want to emphasize precise trend lines, cumulative volume, or period-over-period comparison. | ||

| You can create time series charts in {{kib}} using [**Lens**](../lens.md). |

What about putting this sentence in line 13, right after the first sentence? ("...anomalies. You can create ... using Lens. In Lens, time series visualizations are typically built with...")

Feel free to ignore, but I wonder if being this specific about the UI will be hard to maintain. Seems like it should always be intuitive in the UI that each new visualization can be added to a dashboard and/or the library, so maybe this section could just say something like "when you create a new visualization, you can add it to the library for later re-use, or add it to a dashboard immediately."
