Project idea

What is the problem you're trying to solve?

Setting a welcome suite for micro-editing will allow a larger number of wannabe editors to dip their toes in the editing pool. Short yet gratifying experiences will encourage wider participation and longer retention.

What is your solution?

As an easy entry point towards editing, new starters are encouraged taster and appetiser sessions for bite-size editing experience such as suggesting a sub-heading, correcting typing errors, supplying dates or suggesting additional references for an existing article. Hand holding experience will encourage new entrants on the path to editing will reassure them, help them gain confidence and make their experience rewarding.
