Audit of draft articles vs. transcript and style rules
Summary
Systematic checklist for spelling, clarity, chronology, framing and other issues found in the first draft; fixes applied in the revision.
spelling: [{"type":"spelling_inconsistency","description":"Transcript uses 'Wilmington' and 'Wellington' while known proper name provided is 'Willington'. Draft articles standardized to 'Willington'.","severity":"high"}]
clarity: []
chronology: []
framing: []
misinformation: [{"type":"ambiguous_unit","description":"Draft repeated numbers like '9.43' without units; transcript context shows these are town-share dollar amounts (millions). Articles now present these as '$9.4M–$10.0M' and note approximation.","severity":"medium"},{"type":"consultant_name_variation","description":"Transcript contains inconsistent firm names for the consultant (appears as 'TechSomark' and later as 'Tekton'/'Tekton architects'). To avoid misidentification, articles refer to Jeff Wazinski as the project principal without asserting a firm name or by noting multiple spellings" ,"severity":"medium"}]
misidentification: [{"type":"speaker_affiliation_uncertain","description":"S3's firm name spelled inconsistently in the transcript. The article avoids attributing a specific firm name and uses 'project principal' instead.","severity":"medium"}]
out_of_context: []
Quantitative precision: [{"type":"imprecise_number","description":"Several numeric items (e.g., '9.43') lacked units; clarified as millions of dollars in revision.","severity":"medium"}]
Process clarity: []
Context clarity: []
Agency clarity: []
Question emphasis: []
omission: []
bias: []
duplicate: []
Attribution Lock: [{"type":"attribution_note","description":"All direct quotes map to speakers present in the transcript or use functional labels; where firm names or full surnames were uncertain, the article used role-based attribution (e.g., 'project principal') to avoid misidentification.","severity":"low"}]
