You may remember this post about standard proofreading marks, including all the essential notations for anyone in an editing field. Apparently, there are some others worth learning and I’d argue some of them are even more useful than the standard ones!

Heh. A little publishing humor for ya… We are such dorks. I know that “remove permanently from your lexicon” and “pls paraphrase—obviously stolen from Web” are marks I would be using a lot. But if I were to use “Pls don’t eat Pringles while you work,” I’d have to mark it on way too many pages!

Anyway, that came from Geist—check out the original and forward to your friends. Better yet, send them to my blog!
