The overall edit rationale
Required on every task
Write one to three sentences, at least 30 characters.
What to write
- If you changed things: what you changed and why.
- If you changed nothing: why the draft held up.
- If something is unresolved: what exactly is missing or unclear.
You don't need to list every small change. The per-criterion "Individual change log" is optional.
Good
"Narrowed c1 to Image 2, rewrote c3 so any working fix passes, and removed c4 because the user did not ask for tests."
Bad
"Made some changes."
Why it works: a reviewer can see what changed and why.
Why it fails: it says nothing about what changed.
Good
"Checked every criterion, weight and image number against the images. All were accurate and specific, so no changes were needed."
Bad
"Looks fine."
Why it works: it shows the draft was really checked.
Why it fails: it doesn't show any checking happened.
