## Review checklist
-All reviewers can help ensure accuracy, clarity, completeness, and adherence to the [Documentation Guidelines](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/development/documentation/) and [Style Guide](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/development/documentation/styleguide/).
-
-**1. Primary Reviewer**
-
-* [ ] Review by a code reviewer or other selected colleague to confirm accuracy, clarity, and completeness. This can be skipped for minor fixes without substantive content changes.
-
-**2. Technical Writer**
+Documentation-related MRs should be reviewed by a Technical Writer for a non-blocking review, based on [Documentation Guidelines](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/development/documentation/) and the [Style Guide](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/development/documentation/styleguide/).
-- [ ] Technical writer review. If not requested for this MR, must be scheduled post-merge. To request for this MR, assign the writer listed for the applicable [DevOps stage](https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/product/categories/#devops-stages).
- - [ ] Ensure docs metadata are present and up-to-date.
- - [ ] Ensure ~"Technical Writing" and ~"documentation" are added.
- - [ ] Add the corresponding `docs::` [scoped label](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/labels?subscribed=&search=docs%3A%3A).
- - [ ] If working on UI text, add the corresponding `UI Text` [scoped label](https://gitlab.com/groups/gitlab-org/-/labels?subscribed=&search=ui+text).
- - [ ] Add ~"tw::doing" when starting work on the MR.
- - [ ] Add ~"tw::finished" if Technical Writing team work on the MR is complete but it remains open.
+- [ ] If the content requires it, ensure the information is reviewed by a subject matter expert.
+- Technical writer review items:
+ - [ ] Ensure docs metadata is present and up-to-date.
+ - [ ] Ensure the appropriate [labels](https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/engineering/ux/technical-writing/workflow/#labels) are added to this MR.
+ - If relevant to this MR, ensure [content topic type](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/development/documentation/structure.html) principles are in use, including:
+ - [ ] The headings should be something you'd do a Google search for. Instead of `Default behavior`, say something like `Default behavior when you close an issue`.
+ - [ ] The headings (other than the page title) should be active. Instead of `Configuring GDK`, say something like `Configure GDK`.
+ - [ ] Any task steps should be written as a numbered list.
+ - If the content still needs to be edited for topic types, you can create a follow-up issue with the ~"docs-technical-debt" label.
+- [ ] Review by assigned maintainer, who can always request/require the above reviews. Maintainer's review can occur before or after a technical writer review.
+- [ ] Ensure a release milestone is set.
-For more information about labels, see [Technical Writing workflows - Labels](https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/engineering/ux/technical-writing/workflow/#labels).
-
-For suggestions that you are confident don't need to be reviewed, change them locally
-and push a commit directly to save others from unneeded reviews. For example:
-
-- Clear typos, like `this is a typpo`.
-- Minor issues, like single quotes instead of double quotes, Oxford commas, and periods.
-
-For more information, see our documentation on [Merging a merge request](https://docs.gitlab.com/ee/development/code_review.html#merging-a-merge-request).
