It's that time of year again. Instructors, do you find these ghost and zombie guidelines in your classroom? Copyeditors, do you find them in your projects?
real talk: I really really hate when people don't capitalize the second half of a hyphenated compound. "Science-related Facts" WHAT THE HELL DID THE WORD RELATED DO TO YOU THAT YOU DISRESPECT IT IN THIS WAY. #copyediting #editorsky

When a term has more than one plural form, use your judgment to decide which spelling is appropriate to use in your work. Often this will be the one shown first in a dictionary entry. But spellings noted to be "less common" are still okay to use. Just be consistent within a paper.

Sometimes it's best just to write around it.

Writing tip: Look out for pet phrases in your writing, ones that you use over and over again.
These echoes tend to get noticed by readers, and they find them repetitive.
Most writers have this habit. Reread your work and keep an eye out.
When you're working with an editor (or really, with anyone on a professional level), communication is paramount! Everyone is different, and it's not a burden to adjust. The more communication, the better the client relationship.
