Consistency check across a long document

A document written over several sittings, or by more than one person.

Longconsistencyeditingstyle
Check the document below for internal inconsistency. Ignore quality, look only for things that disagree with each other.

Check:
- Terminology: the same thing called different names, or one name used for two things
- Capitalisation and hyphenation of product and feature names
- Tense and person: does it shift between "we", "you", "users", "one"?
- Formatting: heading levels, list punctuation, bold and italic use, code formatting
- Numbers, dates, units and currency formats
- Contradictions in content: a claim in one section that a later section undercuts
- Cross-references to sections that were renamed or removed

Output a table with the location, the variants found, and which one to standardise on. Flag contradictions separately, they matter more.

Making it yours

  • Paste your own material where the prompt asks for it. Everything above that line is instruction, not content.
  • Delete any rule that does not apply to you. A shorter prompt that fits beats a thorough one that does not.
  • If the answer comes back vague, add a line saying what you do not want. Constraints work better than encouragement.

Polish and final checks. Sentence-level style, proofreading, consistency and one last critique before it ships.
