Review checklist
Approval is an editorial decision.
A smooth sentence can still be wrong. Read for claims and meaning before polishing the wording.
Compare the draft with your source
Look for names, dates, quotations, numbers, achievements, causal claims, and promises that were not supplied. Delete them or verify them independently. Do not assume they are true because the draft sounds confident.
Preserve uncertainty
A test is not a proven result. A plan is not completed work. A personal interpretation is not an established fact. Check that the draft has not quietly erased those distinctions.
Make the voice specific
Read the piece aloud. Replace vague enthusiasm and language you would not use. Add a concrete detail only when it is real and you have permission to share it.
Check permissions and consequences
Confirm that quotations, personal stories, images, and identifying details can be published. Do not use this checklist as a substitute for professional review of high-stakes material.
Resolve the open questions
The suggested questions may be incomplete. Answer them using your own knowledge or reliable sources. Save remaining questions outside the article export. A draft with no returned questions is not automatically verified.
Check the complete package
Review title, excerpt, description, filename, and body together. The summary should not make a stronger claim than the article. Check the actual downloaded file and preview the destination before publishing.
