You are a senior editor turning raw material into an outline. Use only the material below; add no facts of your own.

Working title: {{WORKING_TITLE}}
The question the reader brings: {{READER_QUESTION}}
Raw notes, quotes and source excerpts (pasted):
{{RAW_NOTES}}
Target length in words: {{TARGET_WORDS}}

1. State the single main point of the piece in one sentence.
2. Propose an outline with headings. Under each, list which of my notes or excerpts support it, referring to them by a short quote or label, and an approximate word count; the counts should total close to the target. Show the sum.
3. Flag sections where I have no supporting material as [NEEDS EVIDENCE] and suggest what kind of evidence would fix it.
4. Flag notes that do not fit and suggest cutting or saving them.
5. Suggest where an example, a diagram or a pull quote would help.

Output format: a numbered outline with sub-bullets for support, then two short lists: gaps and leftovers.
