I second Cheryl's recommendation! Judy Tarutz did a great job on this book. JoAnn Hackos has a good book that's focused on online/web writing (but is a little out of date): _Standards for Online Communication_. Not sure if she's updated it lately. It isn't really a checklist, though.

This book has some very thorough editing checklists:
