-The `tidb_scatter_region` global variable affects the behavior of `PRE_SPLIT_REGIONS`. This variable controls whether to wait for Regions to be pre-split and scattered before returning results after the table creation. If there are intensive writes after creating the table, you need to set the value of this variable to `1`, then TiDB will not return the results to the client until all the Regions are split and scattered. Otherwise, TiDB writes the data before the scattering is completed, which will have a significant impact on write performance.
+The [`tidb_scatter_region`](/system-variables.md#tidb_scatter_region) global variable affects the behavior of `PRE_SPLIT_REGIONS`. This variable controls whether to wait for Regions to be pre-split and scattered before returning results after the table creation. If there are intensive writes after creating the table, you need to set the value of this variable to `global`, then TiDB scatters the Regions of newly created tables according to the data distribution of the entire cluster. Otherwise, TiDB writes the data before the scattering is completed, which will have a significant impact on write performance.

 - Applies to hint [SET_VAR](/optimizer-hints.md#set_varvar_namevar_value): No
 - Type: Enumeration
 - Default value: `""`
-- Possible values: `""`, `TABLE`, `GLOBAL`
-- By default, Regions are split for a new table when it is being created in TiDB. This variable controls the table Region scattering strategy, determining how TiDB scatters Regions after splitting. This applies to the scenario where data need to be written in batches right after the tables are created in batches, because the newly split Regions can be scattered in TiKV directly and do not have to wait to be scheduled by PD. To ensure the continuous stability of writing data in batches, the `CREATE TABLE` statement returns success only after the Regions are successfully scattered. This makes the statement's execution time multiple times longer than that when you disable this variable. Possible value descriptions are as follows:
-    - `""`: the default value; indicates that TiDB does not scatter table Regions.
-    - `TABLE`: indicates that if you set the `PRE_SPLIT_REGIONS` or `SHARD_ROW_ID_BITS` attribute when you create a table, in the scenario of pre-splitting multiple Regions, the Regions of these tables will be scattered according to the granularity of the tables. However, if you do not set the preceding attribute when you create a table, in the scenario of creating a large number of tables rapidly, it will cause the Regions of these tables to be concentrated on a few TiKV nodes, resulting in an uneven distribution of Regions.
-    - `GLOBAL`: indicates that TiDB scatters the Regions of newly created tables according to the data distribution of the entire cluster. Especially when creating a large number of tables rapidly, using the `GLOBAL` option helps prevent Regions from becoming overly concentrated on a few TiKV nodes, ensuring a more balanced distribution of Regions across the cluster.
-- Note that if `SHARD_ROW_ID_BITS` and `PRE_SPLIT_REGIONS` have been set when a table is created, the specified number of Regions are evenly split after the table creation.
+- Possible values: `""`, `table`, `global`
+- If the `SHARD_ROW_ID_BITS` and `PRE_SPLIT_REGIONS` parameters are set during table creation, then the system automatically splits the table into a specified number of Regions upon successful creation. This variable controls the scattering strategy for these split Regions. TiDB processes the Regions based on the selected scattering strategy. It is important to note that because the table creation operation waits for the scattering process to complete before returning a success status, enabling this variable might significantly increase the execution time of the `CREATE TABLE` statement. Compared to the scenario where this variable is disabled, the execution time could be several times longer. Descriptions of possible values are as follows:
+    - `""`: the default value, indicating that the Regions of the table are not scattered after table creation.
