Editing Checklist

Revise in passes for structure, paragraph logic, sentence clarity, word choice, factual support and final proofreading.

LEARN WHILE YOU WRITE

Trying to fix every level at once makes revision shallow. Work from the largest problem to the smallest.

First check purpose and order. Then inspect paragraphs, sentences and words. Verify names, quotations and evidence before the final spelling pass, because polishing a section you later delete wastes time.

VISUAL EXPLANATION · MARKER BOARD

Trying to fix every level at once makes revision shallow. Work from the largest problem to the smallest.

Purpose and structure · stavba textuKeep only sections that serve the task.

Paragraph logic · odstavceOne main job with visible connections.

Sentence clarity · větyControl length, subject and emphasis.

Word choice · slovní zásobaPrefer precise words over decoration.
