	Risk Register		===Risk Register===
	The uncertainty surrounding any decision or action that may negatively affect a project’s success can be defined as a risk and knowing how to classify and document these risks is essential to the success of any project. This is because risk uncertainty can be difficult to control and predict; being able to communicate risk likelihood and categorisation to a project team in an efficient way allows the team to evaluate risks together and identify to what extent they can prevent these risks from happening. Documenting risks from an early stage streamlines a team’s goals and their perception of the project, working as a communication tool and a risk management tool simultaneously. The risk register is the optimum risk management tool within project management when it is used correctly within a management project.		The uncertainty surrounding any decision or action that may negatively affect a project’s success can be defined as a risk and knowing how to classify and document these risks is essential to the success of any project.
			*Is risk only linked to the decisions and actions you make? Isn’t there also risks not affected by your decisions and actions?
			*You only mention classify and documentation is essential. Don't you need to identify the risk before you can classify and document?

			This is because risk uncertainty can be difficult to control and predict; being able to communicate risk likelihood and categorisation to a project team in an efficient way allows the team to evaluate risks together and identify to what extent they can prevent these risks from happening.
			*I dont really understand what you mean by categorising the risk. Do you mean the level of impact?

			Documenting risks from an early stage streamlines a team’s goals and their perception of the project, working as a communication tool and a risk management tool simultaneously. The risk register is the optimum risk management tool within project management when it is used correctly within a management project.
			*I don’t see how documenting risks can streamline a team’s goals?
			*’’within project management when it is used correctly within a management project.’’ I don’t entirely get this part here.
			*The whole introduction is missing references.
			*Maybe add a headline called summary or introduction to your first part of the article, since now it seems like the headline for the first text is the title of the article

			===What is a Risk register===
			A risk register is the baseline document of the process of managing risk (reference Winch); it is a means of visualising a project’s risks within a table or template so that risks can be better understood and dealt with by project managers.
			*You mentioned earlier, that it was the team that dealt with the risk, now it is only the project managers?

			It allows risks, their likelihood and preventive measures for each risk to be recorded [2]. The risk register should be in a centralised location for information to be stored and updated with respect to the risks that are effecting the company; it is key that the risk register is used constantly throughout a project process.
			*Again I think this is a very long sentence. Maybe divide between between ‘’company’’ and ‘’it’’

	~~What is a Risk register~~		As can be seen in Graham Winch’s risk process diagram (insert Winch diagram), throughout the lifecycle of how a risk is dealt with, the risk register is the tool that should be constantly updated and referred to.

	Generally, risk registers are created within a company's intranet or online database where the register can be updated by any member of staff and can be seen by any relevant project stakeholders. The register would then be made using database or spreadsheet software. A risk register could also be made offline however, being drawn on a whiteboard at a company meeting for example as a quick and efficient tool for motivating the meeting.

			*I think this whole text block is much better, in regards to understandability and interest, compared to the previous text.

	Whenever an important decision is made within a project, the risk register is referred to. Whenever something unfamiliar is being dealt within a project, again the risk register should be referred to. This is how the risk register should be used, as a familiar tool that any member of a project team can come back to ensure they can make the right decisions with a clear and focused mindset and without the need for a boss or authoritative figure being at hand; it therefore also reduces the time needed for project teams to carry out tasks, improving the efficiency of workers.

	The risk register cannot only be used as a motivating risk management tool; it also has further uses as a documentation tool. Documenting information that is flowing into a project is incredibly important to manage risks affecting a current project but it also works as means of storing historical data. Ensuring that information is quickly available to you may be entirely necessary if a past client requires information about a past project [3]. Having a shared risk register would provide access to this information. It is also crucial in preventing future failures as risk registers become more and more effective as they are used more frequently within a company. Information about the uncertainty of a previous risk would allow a project manager to make a more educated decision about how to deal with the risk and would increase their own knowledge about these risks.		*Very long sentence. However, I think it’s good, so just find a spot to separate the sentence. That would improve it a lot.

	Defining Risk		===Defining Risk===
	To use the risk register correctly, it is essential that the risks associated with the project are identified properly using a risk management plan [4]. A risk management plan should consist of utilising the help of relevant stakeholders and project team members to gather all risks prior to the risk register being created. Consulting everybody before the risk register is created increases the efficiency of the risk register; everyone who uses it is involved in its creation and all relevant risks should be covered and correctly recorded if everybody has an input from their respective departments.

	This is because risk uncertainty can be difficult to control and predict; being able to communicate risk likelihood and categorisation to a project team in an efficient way allows the team to evaluate risks together and identify to what extent they can prevent these risks from happening.

	A risk register is the baseline document of the process of managing risk (reference Winch); it is a means of visualising a project’s risks within a table or template so that risks can be better understood and dealt with by project managers.

	It allows risks, their likelihood and preventive measures for each risk to be recorded [2]. The risk register should be in a centralised location for information to be stored and updated with respect to the risks that are effecting the company; it is key that the risk register is used constantly throughout a project process.

	Whenever an important decision is made within a project, the risk register is referred to. Whenever something unfamiliar is being dealt within a project, again the risk register should be referred to. This is how the risk register should be used, as a familiar tool that any member of a project team can come back to ensure they can make the right decisions with a clear and focused mindset and without the need for a boss or authoritative figure being at hand; it therefore also reduces the time needed for project teams to carry out tasks, improving the efficiency of workers.

	The risk register cannot only be used as a motivating risk management tool; it also has further uses as a documentation tool. Documenting information that is flowing into a project is incredibly important to manage risks affecting a current project but it also works as means of storing historical data. Ensuring that information is quickly available to you may be entirely necessary if a past client requires information about a past project [3]. Having a shared risk register would provide access to this information.		The risk register cannot only be used as a motivating risk management tool; it also has further uses as a documentation tool.

	It is also crucial in preventing future failures as risk registers become more and more effective as they are used more frequently within a company. Information about the uncertainty of a previous risk would allow a project manager to make a more educated decision about how to deal with the risk and would increase their own knowledge about these risks.

	To use the risk register correctly, it is essential that the risks associated with the project are identified properly using a risk management plan [4]. A risk management plan should consist of utilising the help of relevant stakeholders and project team members to gather all risks prior to the risk register being created. Consulting everybody before the risk register is created increases the efficiency of the risk register; everyone who uses it is involved in its creation and all relevant risks should be covered and correctly recorded if everybody has an input from their respective departments.
