Fill in: 'We ___ a wiki page whenever the process it describes changes, since a page that quietly falls out of date is often worse than having no page at all.'
We 'update a page' — the standard, simple collocation for keeping documentation current. The other options are less idiomatic here.
2 / 5
Fill in: 'Letting outdated pages sit alongside current ones with no distinction can ___ a new engineer following instructions that stopped being accurate over a year ago.'
We say an unmarked stale page will 'leave' a reader following outdated steps — the standard, natural collocation for the resulting confusion. The other options aren't idiomatic here.
3 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ a stale page clearly rather than deleting it outright, since a wrong answer someone can identify as wrong is safer than one quietly presented as current.'
We 'archive a page' — the standard, simple collocation for marking documentation as no longer current without erasing it. The other options are less idiomatic here.
4 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ every page with a named owner, so a stale entry has a specific person to ask rather than being nobody's responsibility at all.'
We 'tag a page' — the standard, simple collocation for attaching ownership metadata to documentation. The other options are less idiomatic here.
5 / 5
Fill in: 'We ___ the whole wiki's most-visited pages once a quarter, since a handful of heavily used entries going stale does more damage than a hundred rarely read ones.'
We 'audit a wiki' — the standard, simple collocation for systematically reviewing documentation accuracy. The other options aren't idiomatic here.
