Key takeaways
- Classify articles as keep, update, consolidate, or retire.
- Recheck high-impact claims and links on a defined cadence.
- Preserve change notes so reviewers know what moved.
Maintenance queue
| Trigger | Action |
|---|---|
| Source updated | Recheck affected claims |
| Link fails | Replace or remove after review |
| Intent changes | Rebrief and assess overlap |
| Owner leaves | Assign a new accountable owner |
Use the source verification workflow for claims and the calendar controls for due dates.
