Ereviewed

Ereviewed is a neologism formed by adding the electronic prefix e- to the past participle reviewed. It is used to describe something that has undergone a review process conducted via digital or online means rather than through traditional, paper-based, or in-person methods. The term is not widely included in standard dictionaries and appears mostly in informal or niche contexts such as online discussions, industry slang, or early-stage documentation.

Common contexts for ereviewed include online product or manuscript review workflows, where reviews are submitted, tracked, and commented on through web-based platforms; code reviews in software development environments that use version control systems; and editorial processes in digital publishing. As a verb, it may appear in sentences like “The document was ereviewed before publication,” though this usage can feel idiomatic or nonstandard. In formal writing, clearer alternatives such as “electronically reviewed” or “reviewed electronically” are generally preferred.

Related terms and considerations include e-Review as a noun describing an online review process, digital or electronic review workflows, and terminology like “electronic review” that communicates the same idea in a more conventional form. Because ereviewed is not universally recognized, writers should consider their audience and may opt for standard phrasing to ensure clarity and avoid confusion.
