My emergency measures include
Correcting obvious errors: spelling, syntax, punctuation, inconsistencies, breaches of style | |
Eliminating unnecessary technical language, jargon and legalese | |
Inserting summaries and (sub-)headings to make reading easier | |
Restructuring | |
Concentrating lengthy texts |
These actions rarely give any long-term results for the organisation, but they are sometimes necessary for specific texts, especially in urgent situations.
