I have three research manuscripts that were initially drafted with AI assistance and now need a thorough human overhaul before journal submission. Each week, I will share one paper (≈5,000–7,000 words). Your task is to transform each draft into a polished, formally academic article that will clear Turnitin without triggering AI-generated text flags. Your quote should be based on editing all three papers.
The work must centre on:
• Grammar and syntax – eliminate awkward phrasing and errors.
• Structure and flow – reorganise content where necessary so arguments unfold logically.
• Accuracy and content – verify claims, tighten arguments, and flag any sections that need additional citations or clarification.
• No AI writing – the final prose should read naturally, reflecting an authentic scholarly voice.
Deliverables for every paper:
1. A clean, publication-ready manuscript in Word.
2. A tracked-changes file showing all edits and rewrites.
3. A brief editorial note (≈300 words) explaining major structural or content adjustments.
4. Confirmation that the document passes a Turnitin originality check.
I expect a one-week turnaround per paper once files are provided. Familiarity with common academic style guides (APA, MLA, or Chicago, as appropriate) and experience editing peer-reviewed work are essential. If you can demonstrate prior success in preparing manuscripts for reputable journals, I’m keen to collaborate.
