Humanities Article Proofread & Reference Scan
Budget: $30 – $250 USD
I have a humanities-focused research article that is ready for its final polish. What I need now is a sharp editorial eye to go through every sentence, tighten the language, and make sure the argument reads smoothly from start to finish. My priority is the quality of the English itself—word choice, tone, and any subtle linguistic issues that might distract a discerning reader.
Alongside the line-by-line work, I also want each in-text citation cross-checked against the reference list. If something is missing, mis-formatted, or out of sequence, flag it and correct it. I’m using standard humanities citation style, so consistency in punctuation, italics, page ranges, and DOI formatting matters.
Deliverables:
• A tracked-changes version showing every correction
• A clean, publication-ready version
• A short reference audit report noting any entries you added, removed, or reformatted
If you regularly navigate the nuances of academic prose and enjoy making references flawless, this should be a straightforward assignment.
