Profile diagram
A profile diagram operates at the metamodel level to show stereotypes as classes with the «stereotype» stereotype, and profiles as packages with the «profile» stereotype.[1] The extension relation (solid line with closed, filled arrowhead) indicates what metamodel element a given stereotype is extending.

Example for the definition and usage of a simplified profile for organisation modelling purposes.

History
The profile diagram didn't exist in UML 1. It was introduced with UML 2 to display the usage of profiles. Before its introduction, other diagrams had been used to display this issue.[1]

gollark: OC can!
gollark: "Stable" and "high level"?
gollark: It is not.
gollark: That's the CURRENT existing krist. It says so.
