Rewrite a confusing help-center article

A task-focused help article, a before-and-after excerpt, and a short usability check.

Fictional practice project. Use it to demonstrate your process, not to claim a client relationship, qualification, or measured business result.

The brief

Paper Kite is a fictional project app. A support team needs a clearer article explaining how to invite a teammate. Use only the product behavior below. Separate what the app actually does from ideas for future product improvements.

Your source material

FICTIONAL PRODUCT FACTS
Only a workspace owner or admin can send invitations.
Path: Workspace settings > People > Invite.
Required field: the teammate's email address.
Available roles at invitation: Editor or Viewer. Default: Viewer.
The invite expires after seven days.
A pending invite can be resent from People; resending creates a fresh seven-day window.
If the teammate is already a member, the app shows “Already in this workspace.”
No bulk invite feature exists in this exercise.
Original article: “Invites are easy. Go into settings and put your people in. Choose permissions and they'll get in when they accept. If it doesn't work try again or check that everything is correct.”
Unknown: whether invitations count toward paid seat limits. Do not invent billing behavior.

Work through the project

  1. Define the reader’s task and required permission.
  2. Write a title, prerequisites, ordered steps, and troubleshooting section.
  3. Explain the two roles without inventing capabilities beyond their names; identify what needs product confirmation.
  4. Walk through the article using the stated facts and mark any unsupported step.
  5. Ask a peer to explain the process using your article, or label your own walkthrough as a self-check.

A judgment call worth noticing

Replace “check everything is correct” with a specific diagnostic: “If you see ‘Already in this workspace,’ check the People list before sending another invitation.” Specific instructions reduce guessing.

Review your sample

Mark a check only after inspecting your output. Clicking saves these checklist ticks on this browser. Nothing is sent to an AI model. You can clear progress from My saved resourcesAI workflow planner.

Make the work portfolio-ready

Include the fictional brief, your artifact, two decisions you made, and the checks you performed. Explain where AI helped and what you changed. Separate self-review from feedback you actually obtained. Do not claim an outcome you did not measure.
