Purpose: bound the audit and preserve a representative baseline.
Scope: channels/tools [ ]; audience tasks [ ]; time period [ ]; assets included/excluded [ ]; why this sample covers routine and difficult uses [ ]. A few screenshots are not a complete audit of every business output.
Asset register: ID | actual file/URL/version/date | owner | channel/tool | user task | frequency | content difficulty | existing rule/reference | status/access/rights. Preserve the original candidate or version reference before changing it.
Include long titles, dense text, small formats, different backgrounds, required fields, and editing tasks rather than only ideal mockups. Record private/redacted fields separately and avoid copying customer information into a shared audit.
Baseline observation: location | current hierarchy/type/color/spacing/component | visible inconsistency | task effect or hypothesis | evidence category | limitation. Distinguish measured/observed behavior, reviewer opinion, and inferred user impact.
Production constraints: approved fonts and rights [ ]; actual tools/editor ability [ ]; platform/output requirements [ ]; required legal or finance fields [ ]; accessibility/production owners [ ]. Unknown requirements remain open, not a reason to create a universal style.
Sample coverage gaps: missing use | likely consequence | owner/date for follow-up [ ]. Verify the asset is current; an obsolete version should not determine the new rule.
Decision: sample ready / add evidence / hold. Retain intentional differences until their function is understood; consistency alone is not a reason to remove a necessary exception.
