Proofreading

What to Check

1. Reading Flow

• Transitions between sections make sense
• Paragraph lengths are reasonable
• Technical explanations are clear
• No jarring jumps in logic
• Check for contradicting statements (within paragraphs, between sections, intro vs conclusion)

2. Links

• Test external URLs resolve (use web_fetch or curl -I)
• Check internal links exist
• Convert inline URLs to reference-style links:
  • Inline format: [text](https://example.com) → should be [text][ref-name]
  • All references defined at bottom of post in format: [ref-name]: https://example.com
  • Check for any raw URLs like https://example.com that should be wrapped in links
• Verify reference-style links formatted correctly: [text][ref]
• Verify all reference definitions exist at bottom

3. Formatting

• Code blocks have language tags: bash, python, etc.
• Lists formatted consistently
• Headers follow ## pattern (no single #)
• Proper markdown escaping where needed

4. Basic Checks

• Spelling and grammar (light touch)
• Consistent terminology throughout
• Consistent person (first person for experience, "you" when addressing reader is OK, but no "users should" or "one might")
• Section headers match content

Tools

# Test if URL resolves
curl -I -s https://example.com | head -1

# Or use web_fetch for full content check

Keep It Light

• Flag issues, don't fix everything
• Focus on broken stuff, not stylistic preferences
• Trust the author's voice

Response Format

**Flow**: Good overall, but transition between § "DNS Fix" and § "Desktop Packages" feels abrupt.

**Links**: 
- ✅ All external links resolve
- ⚠️ Reference [1] not defined at bottom

**Formatting**:
- Missing language tag on line 45 code block
- Inconsistent list formatting in § "Troubleshooting"
