Align with your sources

Paste a paragraph alongside the paper it draws from and Anara revises it so each claim stays inside what the source actually argues. Use it for a source-fidelity pass before a chapter goes to your supervisor or a paper goes to a journal. This is not a general writing-quality pass.

Prompt

A doctoral student in strategic environmental assessment revises a paragraph in her chapter on climate policy integration.

I have written the following paragraph for my dissertation chapter. The paper it draws from is already in my library. Please revise the paragraph so every claim stays within what the paper actually argues. Do not change my argument structure or add new claims. If a sentence overstates the source, soften it. If it mischaracterizes the finding, correct it. Show me the revised paragraph and note any sentence you changed with a brief explanation of why.

What to add to your library

• Required: the paper the paragraph draws from, in your library or attached to the chat.
• Required: the paragraph you want revised.
• Optional: the chapter context (literature review, methods, or discussion), so Anara can calibrate how closely to stay to the paper's own language.
• Optional: the target journal or supervisor's expectations, to calibrate citation depth.

What you get

• A revised paragraph with every change marked.
• A brief note per change saying whether the sentence overstated, understated, or paraphrased inaccurately.
• A flag wherever Anara cannot verify a claim against the paper, rather than a guess.

Follow-ups

Improve the academic register after the accuracy pass.

The revised paragraph is now accurate to the source. Make a second pass to improve the academic register: tighten the language, remove any informal phrasing, and make sure the sentence structure reads clearly for a specialist audience. Do not change the substance or the citations.

Find the original passage behind a change.

For the sentence you changed in the second line, show me the exact passage from the paper you used as the basis for the revision.

Tips

• Keep "do not change my argument structure or add new claims." Without it, Anara may reshape your paragraph toward the paper's own framing.
• Check one paper at a time. Naming each source and checking sentences against it beats reconciling several sources in one pass.
• Anara can tell you a sentence does not match a passage, not whether that passage is the paper's central claim or a secondary detail. Judge the weight yourself.
