Notification of Content Edits

  • Easy Edit: A content creator has implemented a change within an article that has already been approved and is currently live on within the KB. When the Content Specialist reviews the content they notice a small change (e.g. accessibility issue, not following style guide adherence, phrasing). The Content Specialist then corrects the issue without review, creates a comment of the change for the said team’s content manager so they may review.

  • Involved Edit: A content creator has published a substantial changes to a public-facing article and said changes have considerable issues. The Content Specialist would then either:

    • A) Revert the article to a previous state and submit a ticket about the changes that were implemented. Recommend a drafting session/remediation of article.

    • B) Implement changes to article in order to have the edits in question meet style guide/accessibility adherence. Submit a ticket for the edit(s) involved for the content manager to the review change(s).

  • New Article: A content creator has created a new article and wants to have the article published within one OIT’s pubic-facing knowledge bases. The content creator then creates a ticket for new content, which is then submitted to DAC. The Content Specialist then reviews the content and provides any edits if needed. Content is then published and added to the Content Inventory within its respected tab.

If a content creator/team has repeated issue/concerns refer to Escalated Content Concerns below.
