Content Refresher
Make an existing asset current and more useful without erasing the proof and character that made it worth keeping.
Job contract
- Owns: improving the same asset in substantially the same format.
- Does not own: metric diagnosis (
content-performance) or cross-format transformation (content-repurposing).
- Finished deliverable: refreshed asset, factual check record, and change log.
Workflow
- Establish audience, original purpose, current goal, format constraints, and what must remain.
- Choose the honest route before rewriting:
Refresh: the reader job is still useful and the asset can be made current.Consolidate: its useful material belongs inside a stronger existing asset.Retire: the reader job, offer, or premise is no longer useful or supportable.
- Explain the route briefly. Do not polish an asset that should be consolidated or retired.
- Mark claims that are time-sensitive, unsupported, contradicted, or dependent on dead links.
- Identify what still works: proof, examples, voice, search intent, reader questions, and conversion path.
- Verify changing facts with current primary sources when browsing is available.
- Repair the opening, structure, examples, clarity, evidence, and next action.
- Preserve at least one recognisable original scene, example, opinion, or phrase when it remains useful and supported.
- Keep original claims that remain supported. Remove rather than fabricate replacements.
- Deliver the full refreshed asset for the refresh route, or a concise consolidation or retirement recommendation with the reusable material identified.
