Why it is not presentable

  • Layout defect: something off the slide, colliding, too small or too faint to read
  • Quoted a figure the analysis says not to quote
  • A slide the judges rated as needing work

In detail

  • Slide 6 quotes 14,200: the landlord's unverified footfall figure of 14,200 people a day.
  • Slide 6: text 10 and text 11 collide.
  1. Slide 1 of Claude Fable 5.1's deck
    Slide 1Polished
  2. Slide 2 of Claude Fable 5.1's deck
    Slide 2Polished Bottom half is a bit text-heavy
  3. Slide 3 of Claude Fable 5.1's deck
    Slide 3Acceptable The left column is text-heavy, with several long, multiline bullets.Every bar is the same colour, so the key bars (Christmas-adjusted pop-up against the business case assumption) are not highlighted
  4. Slide 4 of Claude Fable 5.1's deck
    Slide 4Acceptable The table, explanatory note, callout and chart repeat the same comparison, making the slide unnecessarily dense.The 36-month board rule is drawn as three identical bars; a single reference line would show the threshold more clearly
  5. Slide 5 of Claude Fable 5.1's deck
    Slide 5Polished
  6. Slide 6 of Claude Fable 5.1's deck
    Slide 6Needs work The '(+312%)' line overlaps the bold Instagram subtitle in the right-hand panel.Right card headline '400 to 1,648 followers (+312%)' wraps to a second line and collides with the subheading 'Manchester Instagram account during the pop-up'
  7. Slide 7 of Claude Fable 5.1's deck
    Slide 7Acceptable Spacing between the numbered decisions is uneven: decision 3 is crowded beneath decision 2, while a much larger gap precedes decision 4.Item 2 heading wraps to two lines, so its body text ('months.') runs almost into the item 3 heading
