How do I properly format a "Incorrectly Regarded as Goof" submission?

I was looking for guidance in the Goofs page of the Help centre, but I didn't see anything about the specifics of how to format an "Incorrectly Regarded as Goof" submission. In particular, do I keep the full text of the original Goof submission before explaining why it's not a goof? Thanks!
