# UT-PUB-07 — Brand Language Remediation (Sitewide Copy)
## Status
Ready for Dev
## Story
As a site visitor,
I want clear, human, nononsense copy without buzzwords or hype,
so that I can understand services and artists quickly without feeling marketed to.
## Acceptance Criteria
1. Given I visit key public pages (/, /artists, /gift-cards, /services, /specials),
When I read the visible copy,
Then no disallowed phrases or hype terms appear per docs/united_tattoo_brand_language_guidelines.md, and revised copy matches the guidelines tone and examples.
2. Given the SEO metadata (app/layout.tsx),
When I review the meta description,
Then it uses plain language with no hype words (e.g., “stunning”, “exceptional”), following the guidelines.
3. Given artist bios and marketing blurbs (data/artists.ts),
When I read bios,
Then language is concrete and justified (years, specialties, examples), with no absolute superlatives (e.g., “powerhouse”, “unparalleled”, “nextlevel results”).
4. Given a brandlanguage lint test is added to CI,
When the test runs on PR,
Then it fails if disallowed phrases are introduced anywhere under app/, components/, data/ and passes after remediation.
5. Given the guidelines require Grade7 reading level as a standard,
When I spotcheck revised copy with a readability tool,
Then copy approximates Grade7 or lower (short sentences, concrete nouns/verbs) and avoids abstract metaphors.
## Tasks / Subtasks
- [ ] Apply copy rewrites in components (AC: 1)
- [ ] components/artists-page-section.tsx
Replace: “Our exceptional team… unique expertise and artistic vision… your perfect tattoo.”
With: “Meet our artists. See their work and specialties. Well match you to the right artist for what you want.”
- [ ] components/artists-grid.tsx
Replace: “talented… unique style… create your perfect tattoo.”
With: “Browse artists by style and experience. Pick the one whose work matches what you want.”
- [ ] components/gift-cards-page.tsx
Replace: “Give the gift of exceptional tattoo artistry. Perfect for …”
With: “Give a tattoo gift card. Good for any service. Never expires.”
- [ ] components/services-section.tsx
Replace: “Transform… into stunning new pieces… bold blackout designs.”
With: “Coverups and blackout. We design a new piece to cover the old one. Free consult to pick the best approach.”
- [ ] components/services-mobile-carousel.tsx and components/services-mobile-only.tsx
Mirror the servicessection rewrite above.
- [ ] components/specials-page.tsx
Replace “Perfect for firsttime clients” / “Perfect gifts …”
With: “Good for firsttime clients” / “Good gift for anyone who wants a tattoo.”
- [ ] components/artist-portfolio.tsx (marketing blurbs only; authentic client quotes may remain as quotes)
Replace hype (“powerhouse”, “exceptional”, “nextlevel results”)
With concrete: “22+ years. Focus: coverups, makeovers, illustrative work. See recent coverups in the portfolio.”
- [ ] Normalize artist bios (AC: 3)
- [ ] data/artists.ts — Christy
Replace: “powerhouse… exceptional… nextlevel results… name you trust… creativity and expertise thrive”
With: “22+ years. Coverups, makeovers, illustrative designs. Based in Fountain/Colorado Springs. See coverup examples.”
- [ ] data/artists.ts — Donovan
Replace: “unparalleled passion and creativity”
With: “Bold illustrative work with fine detail. See recent pieces.”
- [ ] data/artists.ts — Heather
Replace: “unmatched artistry… turns skin into stunning, wearable art”
With: “Vibrant watercolor and embroiderystyle designs. Portfolio shows healed results.”
- [ ] data/artists.ts — Other entries
Remove/replace “perfect”, “exceptional”, “stunning”, “trusted name/name you trust”, “nextlevel”, “powerhouse”, “thrive(s)”. Use concrete facts (years, styles, favorite subjects) and link to work.
- [ ] SEO meta description (AC: 2)
- [ ] app/layout.tsx
Replace: “explore stunning tattoo portfolios”
With: “Browse artists portfolios and book with the artist you want.”
- [ ] Add brandlanguage lint tests (AC: 4)
- [ ] Create __tests__/content/brand-language-lint.test.ts
Fails on banned patterns (regex: “exceptional|unique|perfect|world[- ]class|cutting[- ]edge|unparalleled|next[- ]level|powerhouse|trusted name|name you trust|premium experience|seamless experience|unforgettable|thrive[s]?|elevat\w+|stunning|incredible|exceeded all my expectations”).
Scope: scan text content of app/, components/, data/.
- [ ] Wire test in CI (existing Vitest runs): ensure it executes with the rest.
- [ ] Document how to extend the banned list from docs/united_tattoo_brand_language_guidelines.md.
- [ ] Spot readability checks (AC: 5)
- [ ] Run a quick readability check (manual or script) on changed files; shorten or simplify where needed (Grade7 target).
- [ ] Ensure sentences are short; replace abstract phrasing with concrete (sizes, hours, examples).
- [ ] Regression & QA
- [ ] Visual check of updated pages for layout shifts after copy changes (line wraps, responsiveness at sm/md/lg).
- [ ] Verify no snapshot or RTL tests fail due to text changes (update snapshots where intended).
- [ ] Confirm no banned phrases remain (re-run search and tests).
## Dev Notes
Authoritative source:
- docs/united_tattoo_brand_language_guidelines.md (Version 1.0)
Remediation scope (from prior audit):
- components: artists-page-section.tsx, artists-grid.tsx, gift-cards-page.tsx, services-section.tsx, services-mobile-carousel.tsx, services-mobile-only.tsx, specials-page.tsx, artist-portfolio.tsx (marketing blurbs)
- data: data/artists.ts (bios and detail lists)
- app: app/layout.tsx (SEO description)
Guidelines to enforce:
- No hype/buzzwords; plain speaking; justified confidence only
- Concrete facts over abstract claims
- Grade7 reading level target; short sentences, contractions OK
- Authentic client quotes can remain as quotes (not repeated as brand claims)
## Testing
- Vitest: brandlanguagelint.test.ts ensures banned phrases absent in text sources
- RTL/component: update any snapshots impacted by copy changes
- Manual: readability spotchecks; crossdevice text wrap checks
