Run an Article Correction Queue With a Filipino Assistant
A separate correction queue keeps factual and technical repairs visible without turning old pages into new publications.

The short answer
Typos, broken links, stale facts, and layout defects do not all need the same response. A Filipino assistant can maintain a correction queue that separates safe preparation from editorial decisions.
Record the live route, observed problem, evidence, reader effect, proposed repair, and owner. Classify the item as copy, link, factual, accessibility, layout, or policy related. Screenshots can help with a visual defect, but quote the affected text when the problem is factual.
The assistant may prepare a corrected link or obvious typo for review. Changes to meaning, publication history, claims, redirects, or removal need the accountable owner. Keep the previous wording in the record so the reviewer can see what changed.
Close the item only after checking the public page. Do not give the repaired page a new publication date unless the site's approved editorial policy calls for a transparent material update.
Keep the first version of the correction queue small enough to inspect. Use a few ordinary items, one correction, and one genuine exception. The assistant should be able to point to the source, the current status, and the person who owns the next decision without relying on a private message.
Review the record at a stated time. A pattern may justify a clearer example, a different field, or better reviewer coverage. One unusual case should stay an exception. Managers still own priorities, sensitive interpretation, payments, access changes, customer promises, and final publication.
