Comment on a shared file

Before I leave this comment on the shared file, make it easy for reviewers to act: surface the exact sentence with the inconsistent date, explain why YYYY-MM-DD helps our exports, suggest the exact replacement text, and note any downstream templates that will break if we change it. Flag whether any stakeholder named Maria or Jamal previously objected to date changes.

I left a comment on paragraph three asking to standardize dates and mentioned Maria and Jamal. Maria hasn't acknowledged and the doc is due Monday. I'm worried she'll delay the decision but I don't know her current bandwidth or objections. What's the most persuasive next step to get a decision without escalating to the director?

Across multiple shared files our reviewers repeatedly reopen formatting comments about dates, figures, and headers, costing hours in weekly meetings. Where are we losing time and authority? Recommend one habit for authors and one brief reviewer rule that would stop the churn and let us close comments the first time.
