Thirty suggestions were made. How can we confirm that all of them have been implemented?
The key to batch modifications is to review each item individually: every comment must have a corresponding action outcome and a designated person for confirmation.
Common questions found in AIThirty suggestions were put forward, and they were all revised regardless of how they were confirmed.
Approval is slow—where does the delay occur?
Thirty suggestions were submitted, yet they were all revised regardless of how they were confirmed? The answer isn't simply to reread them; it requires comparing them against the original.
misread:You'll see once you've made the changes and read it again.Actual circumstances:By the time the revision reaches Article 20, the first ten articles have already been forgotten; omissions in revisions often occur in the middle and later stages.
There is also a common misconception:After making the changes and reviewing the text once more, any omissions will become apparent.In fact:If more than ten items are modified, the human eye will inevitably miss them. Rely on checklists rather than memory.
Basis for Determination
The approach to revision and comparison is as follows: place the new version side by side with the previous version and mark every change; associate each comment with a screenshot of the corresponding change or a description of its location; and have the person providing the comment respond point by point with either "Resolved" or "Still an issue." Once these three steps are completed, thirty comments provide thirty verifiable checkpoints rather than thirty verbal confirmations.
- Revision Comparison
- Reply item by item
- Close and Confirm
Compression order
In terms of tools, the comparison function or online annotation feature of PDF can accomplish this; in terms of processes, someone must be responsible for closing the item; it cannot rely solely on the person who raised the issue to follow up personally.
- Reply to each item of the opinion draft with the status: "Modified/Not Modified/Pending"
- If you cannot change it, state the reason clearly to avoid repeated mentions.
- When reviewing, check off the items against the checklist rather than referring to the original manuscript.
- Include the list of comments as part of the deliverables and submit it together with the manuscript.
Applicability: When there are fewer than five items, numbering them item by item provides limited utility; however, the review should still be conducted by comparing them against the relevant criteria.
On-site settings and practices we have observed
During one revision cycle, thirty-one comments were received; the designer made changes to twenty-six of them but overlooked five. Two of those changes involved merely adjusting the wording before and after the same passage, so only half of the changes were implemented. During the final review, no one went through the comments item by item; they simply signed off directly. Once the final print run was released, the passage that had been revised only halfway read awkwardly.
The opinion regarding PACKFLY is that it can be closed: after making the necessary changes, simply click once; the status will then change from "pending" to "resolved." Only after all items have been closed can the process be considered complete. The reviewer checks the checklist rather than relying on memory. This mechanism may not be sophisticated, but it can keep the likelihood of missed changes extremely low.

Why have all thirty opinions been revised, regardless of how they were confirmed?
Number each item sequentially and respond to each one individually, indicating whether it has been revised, remains unchanged, or is pending. During the review, check off items against the checklist rather than referring to the original manuscript.
Should I provide a reason if I do not change my opinion?
It is necessary. Once the rationale has been articulated, the same point will not be raised again in the next round, and it will also provide a basis for decision-making.
Can the opinion be expressed verbally?
No. Oral opinions cannot be traced back in time, nor can it be confirmed whether they have been implemented.
