120- - **Standard views ** are base views implemented by Odoo. They are directly derived from their model.
121- You should never change them as they allow updating an Odoo database without overwriting a
122- client's modifications.
123- - **Inherited views ** are duplicated views. Modifications always take place in an inherited view. If
124- there is a duplicate view, there will be two views with the same name in the database, but the
125- duplicated view will not have an ID like for standard view.
120+ - **Base view: ** View natively implemented by Odoo. It is directly derived from their model.
121+ A base view should never be altered as it allows updating an Odoo database without overwriting a
122+ client's modification.
123+
124+ Modifications always take place in either a duplicated or inherited view with some differences:
125+
126+ - **Inherited view ** always has an `inherit_id ` and applies modifications based on the source
127+ code of the base view it inherits from.
128+ - **Duplicated view ** is a duplication from another one. Most of the time this kind of view is
129+ created by Odoo when the end-user applies modifications through the Website Builder. This
130+ mechanism prevents data loss when the module is updated because only the source view will be
131+ updated, not the duplicated one. If a duplicated view exists, both the original view and the
132+ duplicated one are visible in the list but only the duplicated one has an `external_id ` (an
133+ `external_id ` set means that the view has been created by the source code of a module).
