EDITORIAL REVIEW · Workflow idea

Adapt a story for a new format without losing its meaning, attribution, or reuse rights.

For work involving proposed short-form adaptations of authorized articles, videos, and other source material, use this review to check the evidence before action. Prepare original format-specific draft copy from material the publisher is authorized to reuse. A shorter format can remove context, transcripts can misquote speakers, and source rights may not cover every destination. Confirm adaptation and media permissions, preserve attribution and links, verify claims against originals, protect unpublished work, and require an editor to approve each exact version and audience.
