Armed Forces Act 1996
Write the words of this act the way you think they should read. Solon shows your change as a redline against the published text and pins it to that exact text, so it can never be applied to wording you did not see.
Change 1
18 Powers exercisable by registrar.
After section 36 of the Courts-Martial (Appeals) Act 1968 there shall be inserted the following section— Powers under Part II which are exercisable by registrar. 36A (1) The following powers of the Appeal Court under this Part of this Act, namely the power— (a) to extend the time within which notice of appeal or of application for leave to appeal may be given; and (b) to order a witness to attend for examination, may be exercised by the registrar in the same manner as they may be exercised by the Court and subject to the same restrictions. (2) If the registrar refuses an application on the part of an appellant to exercise in his favour any power specified in subsection (1) above, the appellant shall be entitled to have the application determined by any judge of the Appeal Court.

One line that says what changes, such as "Halve the dog tax".
Who it helps, what it costs, what it fixes. It is what persuades people to support it.
A proposal here is not law. Support on Solon is evidence that people want the change; the official route says what it takes to make it law.

Ask what your change would do, who would gain and who would bear a cost, and where something like it is already law. The assistant reads your draft as it stands, cites the law and the studies it finds, and takes no side. What you file stays yours.
