    Define the content scope for the review and gather the post records available within it.

  2. Prepare a readable inventory

    Arrange supplied post details in consistent columns so editors can scan and sort the list.

  3. Check the exported file

    Confirm that the file opens as expected and that the included details are useful for the editorial question.

  4. Identify records that need attention

    Use the list to flag missing context, older content, or posts that may need a closer look.

    Have an editor check the live post and approve any edit, removal, or external publication separately.

The handoff

A downloadable list of available post records for sorting and review, with edits and publication decisions left to an editor.

Keep in mind

An export may be incomplete or out of date. Check a post and its current publication status at the source before editing, removing, or republishing it; a person must approve anything published externally.
