What we take into account for proofreading

Homonyms: We check for homonyms. Homonyms are words that share the same spelling or pronunciation but have different meanings. For instance, confusing complement with compliment could be disastrous. Our editors take care of that.

Figure and tables: We check the figure and table numbers. It is not very uncommon to find that the figure or table numbers in the text do not match the actual figure or table numbers.

Punctuation: Our editors correct any mistakes related to capitalized words, missing or extra commas, periods, and quotation marks used incorrectly, and so on.

Special fonts: We double-check unusual fonts (italic, bold, or otherwise different. Genes, for instance, must be italic while proteins must be regular.

Typos: We check for typos and spelling.

Page number: We carefully review page numbers, footer, and header for accuracy and correct order.

Word choice: Choosing the correct word choice improves your content to a more sophisticated level. If some of your paragraphs begin with the same word, your writing will become boring, and it won’t be as dynamic as it should be.

Redundant words: When a word repeats in your paper or thesis, it compromises the language flow, and your reader loses his/her interest in your results. Redundant words will be replaced with proper synonyms.

American vs. British: Whether you write American or British English, it has to be consistent throughout your paper or thesis.

At Scientific Editing, we understand that for your article, thesis, or book to achieve the required level of professionalism; it needs a degree of proofreading that is unrivaled. This why Scientific Editing was established; to provide proofreading services that are unmatched to authors in various fields.

Benefit of Having Your Scientific Article Proofread by Scientific Editing

When a paper or a book is filled with grammatical, spelling, punctuation errors, people, especially in the scientific world, will find it challenging to take the writer seriously. This is a problem, especially when the writer requires the article to be published in a journal. Proofreading your scientific article using Scientific Editing will save you from the humiliation of having your article rejected by science journals due to grammatical errors, or any other type of errors.

Depending on the grammar checkers and spellcheckers, a word processor will more often than not do a bang-up job in correcting spelling, especially when the word you intend to spell is not rightly spelled.  Sometimes you ended up spelling an entirely different word as spellcheckers will not be able to figure that out. Having your proofreading done by our proofreaders will ensure that such a mistake that would be overlooked by grammar checkers and spellcheckers are rooted out and corrected.

Writers make the mistake of misusing some words when they write their scientific articles, and this might be because they are not deeply rooted in the English language. However, our proofreaders are sound and fluent in the English language, and this will help them during proofreading to identify the wrong choice of words and replace them with the right ones, thereby communicating the message or idea in the article clearly and understandably.

Proofreading by Scientific Editing proofreaders will also ensure that the sources cited in the scientific article are not just accurate, but are also legitimate. Our proofreaders verify the credibility of the information in the article. They also check to make sure that the citations in the article are consistent and conforming with the required citation format.

Also, proofreading by our proofreaders will ensure that your article or book stands the chance of being accepted for publishing by various scientific journals. This is because our proofreaders will ensure that the article conforms to the requirement of the specified scientific journal.

As well as ensuring conciseness and clarity, having your article proofread by us will save time and effort on the writer’s part.

Our proofreaders will offer an objective insight into the article, check on word usage by identity, and amend words or phrases that regular spellcheckers will not catch. We also check for misspellings and incorrect words that are often used in place of others because they are homophones.  We check for capitalization, grammar, and punctuation. Our proofreaders will also ensure that the article does not contain any repetitious clichés.

Overall, having your proofreading done by Scientific Editing will ensure that your article is entirely error-free. Plus, we also ensure that the idea in your article is communicated in the best way possible using the best language for ultimate understanding.
