# Reviewing a Diary Entry

{% hint style="info" %}
**Who can access this feature?**

Only Reviewers can see Diary Entries that are submitted for review. Any contributor on a Diary can make another user a Reviewer.
{% endhint %}

Diary Reviewers give submitted entries a final check before they’re locked - they can approve an entry if everything looks right, or reopen it if something needs fixing.

If you're configured as a Reviewer, you'll see submitted entries awaiting your approval.

* Reviewers can reopen a Locked entry anytime if corrections are needed
* Reopening moves the entry back to Open; it must be resubmitted for review
* All review actions are logged in the entry's activity

# Agent Instructions
This documentation is published with GitBook. GitBook is the documentation platform designed so that both humans and AI agents can read, navigate, and reason over technical content effectively. Learn more at gitbook.com.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://help.aphex.co/docs/diary/web/diary-entries/reviewing-a-diary-entry.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
