Regulated rewriting

Regulated Rewriting is a process wherein written texts are reworked so that their meaning and style is adjusted according to some set of rules. It is a way for authors to modify existing texts to make them more understandable to a wider audience. Often, regulated rewriting is used to make text easier to read, or to ensure accuracy and consistency in grammar, formatting, and style. This is usually done by following some type of "rulebook" that explains how to fix, improve, and adjust a text in order to meet certain standards.
