Great!

Would you like to do reviews of existing documents, technical reviews, or
reviews of drafts?  I will set you up with a reviewer account.

Language reviews are grammar, sentence level fixes, errors or
miscommunications in logic and order, as well as for missing concepts or
ideas (out of context diagrams, missing fundamental steps or definitions,
bulleted lists or no lists where numeric lists are easier to use and
associate with steps).  Language reviews are really "usability" reviews
with strong biases for correct grammar and logic. Grammar and syntax alone
are not enough for a successful language review.

Let me know what interests you,

thanks

Please throw the book at me so I can learn how to become a reviewer. I
have done my share of writing and this seems like a thing I can handle.

PS: Documents are on my homepage but not all of them are in English

                 Don't meddle in the affairs of sysadmins,
                 for they are subtle and quick to anger.
