A polished final page can hide an accidental deletion, a softened caveat, or an unrelated rewrite. Reviewing the diff keeps approval focused on the actual change.
Start from the request
Restate the observed problem and approved scope. If the ticket asked for a broken citation repair, a new conclusion and call to action need separate justification.
Read removals first
Deleted words often carry more risk than additions. Look for lost qualifications, definitions, source notes, internal links, and accessibility text. Confirm that removed facts are obsolete rather than merely inconvenient.
Inspect additions in context
Check whether each new claim has adequate evidence and whether the surrounding paragraph still flows. Verify headings, links, dates, metadata, and image paths. Watch for a global replace that changed unrelated wording.
Compare identity signals
If the slug is unchanged, the canonical should remain unchanged. A factual refresh should not silently reset the original publication date. Use an updated date only when the page supports and displays it consistently.
Record approval
BusinessGrowthAssistant can prepare a short diff summary: requested change, files touched, claims added or removed, validations run, and open questions. The accountable editor approves scope expansion and material positioning changes.
Frequently asked questions
Is the rendered preview still necessary?
Yes. The diff proves text changes; the preview reveals layout, component, and responsive problems.
What if the update is very large?
Break review into metadata, structure, factual claims, links, and visual output rather than issuing one blanket approval.
