# Worked content review example

This is an original, fictional exercise prepared by PULSE on 2026-11-07.
It is not a customer case, product output or benchmark. It requires no account.

## Task

A two-person team must publish a short announcement and a square graphic
for a fictional online workshop. The owner wants a useful announcement
without inventing product features, urgency or audience statistics.

## Evidence packet

The following facts exist only inside this exercise:

- Workshop name: Source Check Lab.
- Date: December 10, 2026, at 11:00 a.m. US Eastern time.
- Duration: 30 minutes.
- Topic: checking whether a research answer is supported by its citations.
- Deliverable: participants receive a blank claim-review worksheet.
- Capacity, price, host credentials and measured learning outcomes: unspecified.

A real publication would need a genuine event page and responsible owner.
Do not use this exercise as a real event announcement.

## Draft requiring correction

“Join the top-rated Source Check Lab on December 10 at 11 a.m. Learn to
verify any AI answer in seconds. Only five places remain. Every creator
will leave with proven research skills and a free premium template.”

## Claim-by-claim review

| Draft statement | Evidence decision | Required edit |
| --- | --- | --- |
| top-rated | Not established | Remove; no rating data exists |
| December 10 at 11 a.m. | Incomplete | Add year and US Eastern time |
| verify any AI answer in seconds | Not established | Describe the task without a universal promise |
| only five places remain | Not established | Remove; capacity is unspecified |
| proven research skills | Not established | State the workshop topic, not an outcome guarantee |
| free premium template | Not established | State only that a blank worksheet is provided |

## Corrected copy

“Source Check Lab is a fictional 30-minute online workshop on December 10,
2026, at 11:00 a.m. US Eastern time. Its topic is checking whether a research
answer is supported by its citations. The exercise includes a blank
claim-review worksheet. Booking and price are not specified.”

The copy remains labeled fictional because the underlying event is invented.
Removing unsupported claims does not make an invented event real.

## Visual brief

Use the title, complete date, timezone and one plain description of the task.
Keep the fictional-exercise label visible. Leave out stars, countdowns,
testimonials and a booking button. On a narrow screen, a reviewer should be
able to identify the topic and date without zooming.

## Approval record

- Brief ID: FICTIONAL-SOURCE-CHECK-001.
- Revision: 2, after the unsupported-claim review.
- Reviewer: unassigned; assign a real reviewer before using this protocol.
- Decision: exercise only; not approved for real-world event publication.
- Destination: local exercise file.
- Actual product runs: none.

## Try the protocol yourself

1. Insert an unsupported numerical claim into the draft and locate it in review.
2. Remove the timezone from the visual and see whether a reviewer flags it.
3. Change a fact after approval and require a new revision decision.
4. Compare the approved artifact with the source packet one more time.

Record actual observations in the companion CSV. Leave unknown results blank.
An “approved” status is useful only when it refers to a specific revision and
a real responsible reviewer; an automatically filled field proves neither.
