Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Revision (jep-revision) ## When to trigger - A JEP editor's letter arrived asking for changes (not an anonymous referee report) - The edits center on accessibility, balance, framing, or length — the JEP levers - The managing editor returned a heavily marked-up draft - You need to plan the revision and a concise reply to the editorial team ## How JEP revision differs JEP review is **editor-driven and hands-on**, so revision is a **conversation with the editors and managing editor**, not a rebuttal to hidden referees. The edits will almost always be about *how the piece communicates* — is it accessible enough, balanced enough, well-framed, and the right length — rather than new identification or robustness. The right posture is **responsive and collaborative**: the editors are protecting the broad-audience mission, and on accessibility calls they are usually right. ## Triaging the editor's letter | Editor concern | What it usually means | The fix (skill) | |----------------|-----------------------|-----------------| | "Still too technical / for specialists" | jargon/notation/assumed knowledge remains | `jep-accessibility-and-translation` | | "Reads as advocacy / one-sided" | compet

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill jep-revision --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 984 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
