An advanced ruleset for crafting clear, precise, and formal English technical prose. This guide integrates established literary principles (like those from Strunk & White and Orwell) with modern best practices for AI-generated content. It is ideal for writing research papers, technical documentation, proposals, and release notes, ensuring maximum clarity and professional tone.

This guide helps revise the prose, abstract, and introduction of applied economics manuscripts to conform to the high standards of AEJ: Applied. It teaches how to structure the paper by leading with the core finding and ensuring the economic question is clear in the first paragraph, transforming technical drafts into highly legible, journal-ready exposition.

A comprehensive guide for drafting a technical author response (rebuttal) for peer-reviewed academic papers (CAV). It teaches authors how to structure a rebuttal by addressing specific objections related to proof soundness, benchmark fairness, novelty, and scope, using only verifiable evidence, not future promises.

A comprehensive guide for drafting author responses to highly technical peer reviews in top-tier theoretical conferences. Learn how to repair perceived gaps, address objections regarding proof correctness, tightness, and novelty-of-technique, while adhering to specific academic policies and structure.

This guide provides best practices for structuring complex academic manuscripts, particularly for conferences requiring a single-PDF submission model. It details how to optimally split content between the limited body (e.g., 12 pages) and the extensive appendix, ensuring that the crucial theorems, proofs, and auxiliary lemmas are presented in a verifiable and highly readable manner for peer reviewers. Key techniques include implementing restatement discipline and writing roadmap paragraphs for clear verification paths.

A comprehensive guide for drafting and polishing academic manuscripts intended for Current Anthropology (CA) publication. It ensures the article is highly readable by a global, non-specialist audience, minimizes technical jargon, and adheres strictly to CA's house style (Chicago author-date, strict word caps for Major Articles/Reports, and abstract length). Ideal for final revisions, structuring arguments, and achieving maximum scholarly impact.

A comprehensive guide for authors submitting to top-tier computer vision venues like CVPR. It details how to write highly concise, visually impactful, and rigorous academic papers that pass the 'two-pass reader' test. Focus areas include effective figure design, managing strict page budgets (including figures/tables), calibrating claims to avoid overstatement, and adopting professional technical writing norms.

A comprehensive guide for polishing advanced academic drafts, particularly for top-tier economics journals. It focuses on transforming technical prose into clear, generalist-legible writing by restructuring the argument, leading with economic intuition, and adhering to strict house style conventions. Ideal for the late-stage polish phase when the core research is complete.

A guide for structuring rigorous economic policy manuscripts for a dual audience. It dictates that the main text must be non-technical and policy-first, written accessibly for policymakers, while all technical derivations, proofs, and full estimators are relegated to the appendix to maintain academic rigor.

This guide provides best practices for revising academic manuscripts intended for top-tier economics journals, such as the European Economic Review (EER). It teaches authors how to shift their writing focus from highly technical, field-internal jargon to a general-interest, compelling narrative. Learn to structure the introduction with a clear arc, present result-forward abstracts, write actionable research highlights, and properly report findings using standard errors (SEs) rather than significance asterisks.

This guide provides expert knowledge on the history, etymology, and correct modern usage of the em dash (—). It covers various punctuation marks—including commas, semicolons, and colons—and offers specific guidelines on when to use them in professional writing, technical documentation, and code comments.
