Why this helps
Deleting a document can remove the only visible copy of addresses that still need review.
- Surfaces addresses before cleanup is forgotten
- Supports recovery decisions
- Reduces silent data loss during document cleanup

Questions about this workflow
Can Notis restore the deleted document?
No. This workflow only runs the validation action and reports its findings.
What if the document content is unavailable after deletion?
The report will state that the source content was unavailable instead of inventing results.
