Thank you for this, this is a much better version. I have two and a half notes, otherwise looks good to me.
#1
I believe Rule 3 should say "Link posts" instead of "VIDEO posts", as the rule should apply to all Link posts, and indeed the second sentence correctly mentions Link posts. We might want to say "Link posts (including video and image posts)", just to make sure.This has been reworded in the meantime.

B. What revisions would need to be made for a successful resubmission
I think an exception to this requirement needs to be made in cases of removal based purely on Rule 1. Mods should not be obligated to spend time coming up with ways to make irrelevant content relevant. As the rule says, that is the responsibility of the poster. In some cases, it makes no sense to leave a "please resubmit..." note as the content is, by definition of Rule 1, undesirable. Spam and trolling are obvious cases of this, but sometimes it's perfectly benign content that just happens to have nothing to do with anything whatsoever. I'd say it's definitely best practice to leave a constructive comment when it makes sense, but it shouldn't be required when it doesn't.
Lastly
I'll arrogantly offer to proofread the whole thing once it's finalized, because I think readability and consistency are important, and I'm a bit of a literary neat freak. Amen.

Maybe an idea to define pizzagate? How else are OPs going to know whether it' s relevant?
Is pizzagate jimmycomet? Or is it a worldwide pedo ring?
