Editing a STAR story

Refine each STAR field, preserve revision history, restore an earlier version and mark the story reviewed.

  1. 1

    Open the story

    Choose a story in the bank and confirm its person, source job and original context.

  2. 2

    Edit the STAR fields

    Keep Situation brief, state your Task, describe your own Actions, and give only Results supported by evidence.

  3. 3

    Save a revision

    Saving creates a new version. If someone else changed the story first, reload instead of overwriting their work.

  4. 4

    Use version history

    Compare revisions and restore an earlier version when it is clearer or more accurate.

  5. 5

    Mark reviewed

    Mark reviewed after verifying every claim. Duplicate warnings remain available for separate review.

Tips

  • Use first-person language in Actions so your contribution is clear.
  • If a result has no metric, describe the verified outcome without inventing a number.
