Document Review Support

Proofreading, Editing & Referencing

Improve an existing draft through the agreed level of proofreading, editing, referencing or formatting support, with the required service level confirmed during quotation.

Proofreading, deeper editing, citation review and document formatting are different services. The accepted quotation or written agreement identifies the work, deliverables and deadline included before payment.

What We Can Support

Scope of support

The required service level is confirmed during quotation after reviewing the document and instructions. Proofreading does not automatically include structural editing, reference verification or extensive rewriting.

  • Proofreading: surface-level correction of grammar, spelling, punctuation and consistency
  • Editing: improvements to sentence clarity, paragraph flow, structure, tone and readability
  • Referencing: checking in-text citations and reference lists against the agreed citation style
  • Formatting: document presentation according to supplied institutional, publisher or organisational requirements
  • Academic tone, terminology and consistency review
  • Structural organisation, headings and numbering
  • Tables, figures, captions and cross-reference presentation
  • Supervisor or reviewer corrections within the confirmed scope
  • Editorial comments and recommendations where included
  • Citation-style and reference-list consistency checks

Agreed Before Payment

Possible deliverables

Deliverables vary by service level and are listed in the accepted quotation. Source verification may require additional time or scope, and missing references or incomplete source details may require client clarification.

  • An edited document using Track Changes where included in the accepted scope
  • A clean final copy where included in the accepted scope
  • Editorial comments or structural recommendations
  • Corrected in-text citation presentation and citation-style consistency
  • A corrected or consistently formatted reference list
  • Agreed document-formatting adjustments
  • A consistency review covering language, headings, numbering, tables and figures
  • A response to supplied supervisor or reviewer comments within the agreed scope

Project Fit

Suitable projects and clients

This service is for clients who already have a draft, manuscript, project or document requiring improvement. The document condition, purpose and supplied requirements determine the appropriate service level.

  • Dissertation and thesis drafts
  • Research proposals and literature reviews
  • Essays, assignments and term papers
  • Seminar papers and academic reports
  • Existing project documents and research chapters
  • Presentations requiring language, citation or formatting consistency

Source and Document Responsibilities

Genuine sources and responsible editing

Editing and citation support depend on complete client materials, genuine sources and clear requirements. The service improves supplied work without concealing misconduct or inventing evidence.

  • Clients should provide the complete document and the applicable formatting, citation, institutional, publisher or organisational requirements.
  • Sources must be genuine and retrievable. The service will not create false references, disguise plagiarism or conceal fabricated research.
  • Citation checking is based on the supplied document and accessible source information. Missing or unverifiable details may require clarification.
  • Clients remain responsible for confirming the rules that apply to their work. Similarity and detection systems can produce different results, and no particular result is guaranteed.

From Enquiry to Final Files

How the process works

Work begins only after the service level, scope, deliverables, deadline and relevant terms have been accepted and any required payment has been received.

  1. 01

    Submit the document, instructions and deadline

    Share the complete draft, applicable guidance, citation requirements, required outputs and delivery deadline.

  2. 02

    State the support required

    Explain whether you need proofreading, editing, referencing, formatting, supervisor corrections or a combination of agreed services.

  3. 03

    Receive the proposed scope and quotation

    We review the materials and set out the proposed service level, deliverables, price and delivery date. An enquiry alone does not create a paid-service contract.

    Approve the scope and provide the files

    Accept the written scope and relevant terms, arrange any required payment, and provide the final working files and source details.

  5. 05

    The agreed review is completed

    The confirmed proofreading, editing, citation checking or formatting work proceeds according to the accepted scope.

  6. 06

    Review the returned document

    Check the delivered files and gather any questions or in-scope adjustments into one clear written request.

  7. 07

    Submit an included revision request

    Use one consolidated written request for each included revision round, keeping the requested changes within the agreed scope.

  8. 08

    Receive the final agreed files

    After the agreed review and revision process, the confirmed tracked, clean or formatted files are supplied.

Personalised Quotation

Pricing: Get a personalised quote

Final pricing depends on word count, document condition, required editing depth, citation style, the number and condition of references, formatting complexity, deadline and required output versions. The accepted quotation confirms the price before work begins.

Included Adjustments

Two free revision rounds

Every confirmed service includes two revision rounds at no additional charge. One round means one consolidated written change request within the agreed scope. Material corrections do not consume the two rounds. New sections, replacement documents, substantial rewriting, new citation requirements or expanded formatting instructions may require a new quotation. Unused rounds cannot be exchanged for cash, credits or unrelated services.

Common Questions

Proofreading, editing and referencing FAQs

What is the difference between proofreading and editing?

Proofreading corrects surface-level grammar, spelling, punctuation and consistency. Editing may also improve clarity, flow, structure, tone and readability. The quotation confirms which level applies to your document.

Which citation styles do you support?

The current service supports major styles including APA, MLA, Harvard, Chicago, Vancouver, OSCOLA and IEEE, as well as supplied institution-specific requirements. The applicable style must be identified before work begins.

Can you work with Track Changes?

Yes, a Track Changes version and a clean copy can be included where agreed. The quotation identifies the required output versions rather than treating both as automatic inclusions.

Can you address supervisor or reviewer comments?

Yes. Provide the comments and relevant document. We will confirm which changes fall within the proposed editing scope and whether any new writing, research or formatting requirement needs separate quotation.

Do you verify every reference?

Reference verification is not automatic. The agreed level of checking depends on accessible source information, document length and reference condition. Unverifiable, incomplete or missing details may need clarification from you.

How are the two revision rounds applied?

Each round is one consolidated written request within the accepted scope. Material corrections do not use those rounds. Replacement files, substantial rewriting, new citation requirements or expanded formatting instructions may require a new quotation.
