Local Source Audit
Audit the recurring sources behind a local newsletter.
Core Rule
Use the connected workspace for source history, reusable documents, and source update notes when available.
Inputs
- City or region
- Audience and standard sections
- Current source list, if available
- Recent issues or event queues, if available
- Known misses: events, schools, businesses, civic updates, food, arts, family, sports, or neighborhoods
- Connected workspace details, if available
Workflow
- Map current sources by category and coverage area.
- Identify missing or weak categories.
- Recommend high-priority sources to add.
- Mark sources that need login, manual checking, scraping, reader submissions, or social monitoring.
- Save or hand off source updates for the connected workspace.
Output Format
Include:
- Source coverage summary
- Missing source categories
- Source additions table
- Monitoring cadence
- Connected-workspace handoff notes
Source additions table columns:
| Priority | Source | Category | URL | Why it matters | Check cadence | Notes |
|---|
Guardrails
- Do not claim a source is reliable without checking it.
- Prefer official, recurring sources over one-off reposts.
- Flag sources that require manual access, login, or permissions.
