Before I accept or reject suggestions on slide 5, make decisions easy for reviewers: list each suggestion with a one-line reason for accept or reject based on the style guide, highlight any that require re-running slide numbers, and flag any that need the presenter’s approval before final acceptance.

I see mixed suggestions and can’t tell which to accept

There are five suggestions on slide 5: three are minor wording, one changes layout, one changes a data point. I’m torn because the presenter prefers minimal edits but the data change may be important. I don’t know the origin of the data or who signed off. Should I accept the wording edits now and hold the layout and data change until I confirm with the presenter, or consult the data owner first? Recommend the most pragmatic next move and exact message to send to the presenter and data owner.
