Scoring
Calculate weighted score (0-10):
- Each section: 0 (none met) to 10 (all met)
- Weighted by percentages above
- Final score = weighted average
| Score | Verdict |
|---|---|
| 8-10 | Approved — publish |
| 6-7 | Approved with minor revisions — can publish after fixes |
| 4-5 | Revision required — significant issues |
| 0-3 | Rejected — fundamental problems |
Issue Severity
- CRITICAL: Factual error in key finding, missing TLP on sensitive content, unsupported primary conclusion, potential harm if published as-is
- MAJOR: Missing confidence level on assessment, vague likelihood language on prediction, missing source assessment on key evidence, logical flaw in reasoning, missing key section
- MINOR: Grammar/formatting, style inconsistency, minor Admiralty rating disagreement, non-essential section could be improved
