See, this is exactly the sort of thing I was talking about. If Raemon hadn’t posted this comment, I would have no idea that this even is a specific piece of jargon. I read it, and assumed that ‘circumambulated’ was just a rather quirky way of saying ‘discussed’.
I don’t even really have an opinion on whether this is a good (i.e., worthwhile) piece of jargon or not! But it would be quite helpful if, at least, there were a norm of linking to something at least somewhat relevant, when using a piece of jargon that isn’t definitely very widely known among your readers—if for no other reason than to indicate that it is a piece of jargon (i.e., a word which you are using in a domain-specific way, or that has a domain-specific meaning).
