Problem

Articles are written without a consistent structure template, leading to:

  • Some articles missing cost comparison tables
  • Inconsistent callout usage
  • Missing required sections
  • Validator can't check for missing sections without brief

Suggested fix

  1. Create canonical article templates for each article type:
    • Repair guide: Symptoms → Diagnosis → Tools/Parts → Step-by-step → Cost breakdown → When to call a pro → FAQ
    • Decision guide: Scenario → Pros/Cons → Cost comparison → Decision framework → FAQ
    • Checklist: Ordered list with time estimates per task → Seasonal context → FAQ
  2. Add required H2 sections to all briefs
  3. Enforce through the validator

Priority

Medium — enables faster, more consistent article production from the 865-brief backlog.
