How can we create Reference term feature to link to module level artifacts not base artifact in DNG 7.0.2??

When I am trying to create a look up Terms in DNG, Reference terms links linking to base artifact, is it possible to create Reference terms feature to link to module level artifacts??

 No - a References Term link can only be created to a core/base artifact.

That depends what you're trying to achieve - if it's creating a References Term link to a non-base artifact, then no.

 I imagine some rationale for only allowing creating these links to base artifacts is that there can only be one base artifact for a Term, so all these links only can go to one place, i.e.  the base artifact, whereas if References Term links to module bindings of a Term were possible there could be any number of these bindings and no way of ensuring that references links were all to the same term.
