How to use it

  1. Start with a copy of this sheet.The editable workbook includes instructions, clearly labelled examples and blank rows for your actual work.
  2. Record the source timestamp or recording identifier before writing the decision.An exact reference lets another reviewer find the same moment rather than guessing which cut you mean.
  3. Keep the verification note with the decision.Close the item only after checking the exported version, not just the edit instructions.
