Editorial review scoring replaces subjective 'looks good to me' approvals with structured evaluation across defined quality dimensions. Each dimension gets a numerical score, typically 0 to 100, so quality is measurable and comparable across pieces and over time. Common dimensions include factual accuracy (are claims supported?), depth (does it cover the topic thoroughly?), structure (is it well-organized with clear sections?), readability (is the language appropriate for the audience?), SEO optimization (does it target keywords naturally?), and brand voice (does it match the company tone?). Automated scoring can handle the first pass, flagging pieces that fall below a threshold for human review. This creates a quality floor without requiring editors to read every draft line by line.
