...
If a generic/common symbol is available, it is used
Resistor, fuse, capacitor, etc
Symbol matches datasheet
Pin numbers
Pin names
All pins are passive
Designator is set in properties with wildcard
K?, R?, L?, C?, etc
Confirm symbol name makes sense and is stored in the right folder (no randomly generated names!)
Confirm type is correct (BOM or No BOM)
Footprint
If an existing/shared footprint exists, it is used
If a common footprint is used, verify fitment against the datasheet (basically confirm the package fits the footprint we have, rather than the datasheet footprint exactly matching our footprint)
Footprint matches datasheet
Verify pin mapping
Verify dimensions
Verify units
Verify hole size
