Resolving editor warnings
Steps
Check the Table of Contents on the the left-hand side for warnings.
Go to the provision to see where exactly the warning is coming from.
Edit the provision to resolve the warning; the warning will no longer be there after you Update.
Don't forget to save! :)
Tips
Do fix OCR errors and whitespace errors.
Don't fix spelling, grammar, punctuation, or numbering errors; rather make a comment or insert an editorial note.
Examples
All-caps headings
Solution: Make the heading/s Sentence case.
Empty body
Solution: Remove the 'Schedule' introduction (keyword, heading, and subheading), and make sure the body of the document starts after the BODY keyword.
Empty section
Potential solutions:
Move the content of the section under the heading, if it's a section.
Use the
PARAkeyword, if it's a numbered paragraph in a Schedule or Annexure.insert a
\before the number so that it gets treated as normal text, if it's a numbered list in the main body.Delete the number and heading, if it's in the Arrangement of Sections from the original.
Duplicate section numbers
Solution: Check the section numbers in the original. If that's how they are, insert an editorial note.
Other duplicates
Solution: Check the numbers in the original. If that's how they are, insert an editorial note.
Numbers don't follow
Solution:
First check that the previous element wasn't sucked into the one before it (in this example, see if subsection (3) is at the end of subsection (2)).
Check the numbers in the original. If that's how they are, insert an editorial note.
Only one element
Solution:
First check that the subsequent element wasn't sucked into this one (in this example, see if subsection (2) is at the end of subsection (1)).
Check the numbers in the original. If that's how they are, make a comment ('note: as in original').
This way, if someone else sees the document and the warning, they'll know you've already checked it.
(l) or (I) instead of (1)
Solution: These should usually be changed to (1). If in doubt, make a comment to ask for feedback from a reviewer.
Broken word
Solution: These should usually be joined into one word ('responsible' in this case). If in doubt, make a comment to ask for feedback from a reviewer.
Space before punctuation
Solution: Find and remove the space. (You may need to use the 'Search' function in Edit view to find it.)
If there should be a space before punctuation for some reason, make a comment explaining why it isn't an error.
Space missing after punctuation
Solution: Insert the missing space.
If there shouldn't be a space for some reason, make a comment explaining why it isn't an error.
Broken link
Solution: See Working with links.
Image missing attachment
Solution: Make sure the name for the file given in Edit view has a corresponding attachment on the document.
m2
Solution: Superscript the 2: … be 300m2 and … → … be 300m{{^2}} and …, or make a comment if it shouldn't be superscripted.
