What you need is a word processor, its Find and Replace, and the highlighter tool–I suggest using a dark colour. The default colour is too light to distinguish.
Now, I’m going to make up a rating slugline for educational purposes. This will look like garble to you, but I promise you, every letter counts.

The warning system take a lot of focus and backtracking, if not for Find and Replace. Make sure you select ‘Match Case’. As you can see, I’ve already underlined every first and third classification, as there is no highlighter option. That includes the ‘;’, but WP is finicky on it.
The very first letters are separate warnings. ‘P’ and ‘y’ are single-letter warnings, therefore are surface-level–let’s call it level 1. The first comma is also level 1, but you’ll notice there’s another comma next to it. The golden rule from here on out is to not repeat combinations. The second comma now takes on ‘L’, and there is our first level 2 warning. Right next to that is ‘wm’, and next to that is ‘au’. The other golden rule is that warnings do not overlap.
And you may have noticed already: there is ‘wl’ but there is also ‘l’. Why is ‘l’ the exception? The answer is, it’s not. There is no ‘w’ behind it, and ‘I’ is its own classification. Just because you find a letter in a level 2 classification does not mean it can’t be its own after the fact.
So, the highest level on this slugline is level 3. It’s two levels lower than moderate. In the case of age bracket, I would gauge that it’s safe for those 8-10 years old. But if I was to research the deeper sluglines (I’ll explain this in a bit), I would probably find warnings as high as 5 or even 7. This can relate to realisations we make as adults, or even things human eyes can’t see. It may not even be referenced in the material, as far as one would know.
On a side note, you may notice that there is the letter ‘ŋ’. This is uncommon in the surface slugline (the one all humans are allowed to see) and is more common in the deeper sluglines–ones watchers are allowed to see and work with. If you come across ‘ŋ’ in your surface slugline, you’ve got something pretty weird.
