NEW VIDEO! My essay about iilluminaughtii, Brian Deer, hbomberguy and YouTube plagiarism is finally up! In it, I fact-check hbomb to see if he was fair to iilluminaughtii, I check with her work for any important mistakes and ask what we can all learn from this.
@ch4r10t_tv I've actually started looking to the reference sections of books as a measure of the editing/production team's abilities. It's a decent challenge for everyone involved (copyeditor, proofer, typesetter/compositor, and, of course, the author). The newer editors I've mentored tend to breeze past them. Perhaps my biggest challenge nowadays is not fractally expanding the scope of my work to have everything be perfectly, rigidly consistent and detailed. 😅
