Quality Review Checklist

Quality Review Checklist Skill

When to Use

• Pre-publication QA for docs, tutorials, and release notes.
• Auditing inherited content during migrations.
• Training new contributors on required review steps.

Framework

1. Accuracy & Coverage – verify features, parameters, screenshots, and examples match latest build.
2. Style & Voice – enforce style guide, terminology, formatting, and tone per audience.
3. Accessibility – heading hierarchy, alt-text, captions, contrast, keyboard navigation, screen-reader cues.
4. Localization & Compliance – translation scope, legal disclaimers, export controls, privacy statements.
5. Version Control – version tags, changelog entries, rollback plan, owner assignments.

Templates

• QA checklist spreadsheet with pass/fail + notes fields.
• Reviewer sign-off sheet with timestamps and comments.
• Issue log for follow-up fixes grouped by severity.

Tips

• Pair reviewers (technical + editorial) for faster turnarounds.
• Automate linting scripts (links, markdown, accessibility) and attach results to the checklist.
• Use with publish-release-documentation for final approvals.
