Revising and Editing

Process in Campus
Journalism
Content Revision
-The initial revision step involves verifying the
article's content for accuracy, coherence, and
alignment with the intended message for readers.
The subsequent step focuses on reviewing the
language, ensuring it suits the audience,
maintaining a consistent tone, and adhering to the
publication's style guidelines.
Language and Style Revision
-This step involves checking the language
and style of the article. The writer or
editor ensures that the language used is
appropriate for the target audience, the
tone of the article is consistent, and the
style of writing aligns with the
publication's guidelines.
Grammar and Spelling Check

-This is a critical step in the editing process.

It involves checking for grammatical errors,
spelling mistakes, punctuation errors, and
other technical aspects of writing. This step
is essential for maintaining the credibility
and professionalism of the publication.
Fact-Checking
-Campus journalists have a responsibility to
ensure the accuracy of their reports. Fact-
checking involves verifying the information in
the article, such as dates, names, quotes, and
statistics, to ensure they are accurate and
reliable.
Final Review
-After all revisions and edits have been made, the
article goes through a final review. This is
usually done by a senior editor or the editor-in-
chief. They will read the article one last time,
checking for any overlooked errors or
inconsistencies, and ensure that it meets the
publication's standards before it is published.
