On "I edit 115+ articles per year. Here are the 5 ways I edit drafts."

Content editors at scale need systems, not inspiration, and this is a useful reality check for anyone treating editing like an art form instead of a workflow problem. The actual value isn't the five methods themselves—it's the admission that you need different tools for different work and that consistency matters more than perfectionism when you're pushing volume. If you're still doing a full line-edit on every draft, you're hemorrhaging time on pieces that only needed a structural pass or a fact check. The take-home is straightforward: audit your process, name what kind of edit each piece actually needs, and stop treating every article like it deserves the same treatment.
