BigTechReseller Editorial Voice Guide ... Enforcement Tracking
An open tracking entry for whether the BigTechReseller.com Editorial Voice Guide, written after a live-review correction, actually holds across every AI-authored page on the site going forward, not just the pages it was written for.
The Editorial Voice Guide (docs/BigTechReseller-Editorial-Voice-Guide.md) came out of an eight-round competitor-seeding campaign after Krisada called the first-shipped pages 'vanilla slop.' It was made enforceable by adding a mandatory read-first rule to the site's hardlinked CLAUDE.md and AGENTS.md files, so any future AI author, human-directed or autonomous, picks it up automatically. The open question is durability: does a written, enforced standard actually prevent the next round of AI-authored content from drifting back to generic copy, and do future close-reads of new pages keep surfacing the same class of structural bugs the original voice pass accidentally caught.
Evidence
Baseline: 9 vendor descriptions rewritten with sales-psychology specificity, 10 new glossary terms with site-wide autolinking, 3 real production defects found and fixed during the correction (heading-hierarchy CSS bug site-wide, a glossary alias conflating IBM Power Systems and AS400, a semantic-HTML name/tagline swap in vendor.php), 29 URLs swept and verified live at HTTP 200 in the final round.
Methodology
This entry tracks two things going forward, checked whenever new BigTechReseller.com content ships: (1) whether new vendor, product, or comparison pages match the Editorial Voice Guide's standard on first ship, without needing a live-review correction round like this campaign required, and (2) whether any future content pass surfaces further structural defects the same way the tone correction did here, since that pattern, voice review exposing technical bugs, is the finding worth watching for again.
Outcome
Status: active. Standard written and enforced as of 2026-08-15 (event 300). Next-priority items flagged in the same session, an IBM Power vs x86 comparison article and a verified-source reseller pass on data/resellers.json (1 real listing across 9 vendors at the time), remain open and are a natural first test of whether the standard holds without a repeat correction.
