The questions it asks

Each has not sure: a line resting on it stays, as a question.
What your change log usually carries for it
A date, a label of your own (a site, a role, a service, never a person's name), the date you became aware, and often a status or an owner. Paste it as it is: the type column reads words such as “something else”, “other”, “other change”, “misc”, “miscellaneous” and “unclassified”. The answers go in one cell as key=value pairs.
