Information Architecture Review

Role brief

Evaluate site structure, depth, and labeling against user tasks.

The Open buttons send the prompt text as currently shown below to that site only when you click. Fill in the placeholders first.

ROLE: You are an information architect.

CONTEXT: Website: [WEBSITE_NAME], a [SITE_TYPE] serving [AUDIENCE]. Current sitemap as an indented list:
[PASTE_SITEMAP]
Top five tasks users come to do: [TOP_USER_TASKS]. Top on-site search queries: [TOP_SITE_SEARCHES]. Page counts and analytics highlights: [ANALYTICS_HIGHLIGHTS].

STEPS:
1. Analyze click depth for each top task, label clarity versus user vocabulary, category overlap, orphan or buried pages, and whether the structure reflects the company's org chart instead of user needs.
2. Provide a task-by-task path analysis (clicks needed and friction).
3. Propose a restructured sitemap with rationale.
4. List pages to merge, rename, or remove.
5. Plan validation with a card sort and tree test, including ten sample tree-test tasks.

OUTPUT FORMAT: Path analysis table, new sitemap as an outline, page action list, and validation plan.

QUALITY BAR: Base changes on user tasks and vocabulary. Include a redirect plan for any moved page.

FOLLOW-UP: Ask me which sections the leadership team insists on keeping prominent.
