TechWhirl (TECHWR-L) is a resource for technical writing and technical communications professionals of all experience levels and in all industries to share their experiences and acquire information.
For two decades, technical communicators have turned to TechWhirl to ask and answer questions about the always-changing world of technical communications, such as tools, skills, career paths, methodologies, and emerging industries. The TechWhirl Archives and magazine, created for, by and about technical writers, offer a wealth of knowledge to everyone with an interest in any aspect of technical communications.
Use a revision box on the front of the document, for
internal purposes. Have them call attention to the
stuff they've added/modified.
Work with them in the project management side of
things. Set up doc review milestones in the project
timeline, with what is expected at those intervals.
Catch recurring mistakes and call them to attention
(no blame, just point the mistakes out), and provide
them with a written explanation of why not to do it
that way and the proper way to do it.
