Overview
One or more users and Confluence user groups can be assigned by an author or editor as readers for a read confirmation.
A user can be assigned as a reader using the read confirmation popup. Once a reader is assigned, all the assigned readers must confirm reading the content for the overall read confirmation to be confirmed.
Any user with view permission for the content can undertake a read confirmation without being first assigned as a reader.

Users assigned as readers
Once a reader is assigned
the overall read confirmation will not be CONFIRMED until the assigned reader has undertaken the read confirmation
If an edit occurs on content with a read confirmation any user who undertook the read confirmation prior to the edit will need to re-confirm the read confirmation and the overall read confirmation will change to PENDING.
Adding a new reader to a CONFIRMED read confirmation will change the overall read confirmation status to PARTIAL.
Unassigning a user who has already confirmed will change the overall read confirmation status depending on the read request progress for the remaining assigned readers. However, the popup will still display the confirmed read undertaken by the unassigned reader.
