02 / The work

6 tasks.
One useful outcome.

Helps a content team prepare site articles and proposed revisions for an editor to check before publication.

  1. Clarify the editorial request

    Confirm whether the team needs a new article or a revision, who it is for, and what the content should accomplish.

  2. Gather approved source material

    Collect the information and references the writer may use, and keep uncertain claims or missing context visible.

  3. Prepare a readable draft

    Organize the supplied material into an article draft or a clearly marked set of proposed changes.

  4. Check claims and presentation

    Ask an editor to verify factual statements, links, attribution, rights, and how the article appears to readers.

  5. Approve the final article

    Have an authorized editor review the exact wording, intended audience, and publication details before anything goes public.

  6. Publish only the approved version

    After explicit editorial approval, publish the verified article or keep it as a draft while questions remain.

03 / The result

The handoff

A published new or revised article after an editor’s explicit approval, or a review-ready draft held until questions are resolved.

Keep in mind

Verify facts, links, rights, and the final presentation in context. Any public publication or account change requires human review and explicit approval.

Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.
