Review web page drafts

When someone sends you a web page draft for your review, the draft appears in your Pages panel in Contribute. You can review the document by selecting the content you want to comment on, and adding your comments. However, you cannot edit the document, as it is in a read-only state.

Only one reviewer can edit the draft at a given time. Other reviewers can review the draft only after the reviewer completes reviewing the draft.

You can do the following when reviewing a web page:
  • Make your comments public or private: Only the author and the reviewer providing the comment can view comments marked as private. All the reviewers in the review cycle can view comments marked as Public.

  • Use the various options in the Review menu to filter comments.

  • Select the color for the highlighted text to which you are adding a comment.

  • Select a color for the comment dialog that pops up when you select text on the web page.

  • Manually refresh the Pages panel to check for drafts pending review.

  • View all the public comments that reviewers have added to the draft.

Note: The draft review process only applies to web page drafts. It does not apply to any blog entry drafts.
  1. Select a draft in the Pages panel to review.

    The draft appears in the Contribute window for you to review; the draft status pane at the bottom of the window contains information about the draft.

    Note: If the draft status pane is not expanded, click the expander arrow at the lower right of the Contribute window to display the pane.
  2. Click the Review button in the toolbar.

  3. Select the text to which you want to add a comment. The comment pop-up menu appears.

  4. After you add a comment, do the following:

    • Click Add Comment to add the comment.

    • Click Public or Private to mark the comment as Public or Private.

    • If you do not want to add the comment, click Delete Comment to remove the added comment from the draft.

  5. Click Review Done to send the draft with the comments to the author.
