JSA report analysis and text editing
Editing bachelor's and master's theses after a JSA report
Do you have a JSA similarity report and passages of your thesis that need revision? Ask us to analyse the highlighted matches and edit the agreed passages. We revise paraphrases, citations, and footnotes while preserving the meaning of the source information. The scope can cover agreed chapters of a bachelor’s or master’s thesis, or another academic text.
What you gain
Specific revisions based on text analysis
You know what requires attention
You identify passages that need reworking, quotations that need proper presentation, and places where a source reference is missing.
You present the content more clearly
Revised sentences and paragraphs form a coherent argument, and discussions of the literature convey the meaning of the publications more accurately.
You organise your work with sources
You clearly separate others' findings from your own analysis. Footnotes and citations help verify the origin of the information.
Scope of support
Reviewing highlighted matches and editing passages
We compare the highlighted matches with the document and available source materials. We identify passages that need reworking and places where a quotation, reference, or footnote needs correction. We take account of supervisor feedback and how the revised passages fit the rest of the thesis.
We work on bachelor’s, master’s, and other degree theses, as well as coursework assignments, seminar papers, and other academic texts.
Report and scope of revisions
When you need to determine what the markings in the report refer to and which places require editorial work.
- Reading the marked fragments in context.
- Comparing the thesis with available source material.
- Identifying passages that need editing.
- Assessing the context of quotations, definitions, bibliography entries, and legal provisions
- Determining the scope of changes considering the supervisor's comments
Result: a list of passages needing attention and a reasoned plan for revising the text.
Paraphrasing and citations
When a paraphrase follows the structure of the source too closely or does not convey its meaning clearly.
- Reworking summaries that follow the source too closely.
- Preserving the meaning of the publications used.
- Editing definitional and theoretical fragments
- Organising sentence structures and the order of information
- Making the wording more distinct from the source and more natural
Result: a clearer account in your own words, with the source publication properly identified.
Citations, footnotes, and references
When it is unclear where a direct quotation, a discussion of a source, and your own commentary begin and end.
- Correcting the markings of quotes and sources.
- Organised footnotes within the agreed scope.
- Identifying sections that require additional source citations or data
- Distinguishing original content from material drawn from the literature
- Checking the consistency between citations and the bibliography within the agreed scope
Outcome: clear attribution of information sources in line with supervisor or university guidelines.
A coherent document
When corrected sections need to be integrated with the rest of the thesis and their formatting standardised.
- Clear sentences and logical connections between paragraphs.
- Aligning the corrected parts with the rest of the text.
- Reducing repetitions and formulaic phrasing
- Improving the technical aspects of the document within the agreed scope
- Preparing the text for another university check
Outcome: a more coherent document with organised revisions and a list of issues requiring further checks.

Context matters
Plagiarism correction vs. similarity analysis – what needs checking?
The term 'plagiarism correction' is often used when seeking help after a JSA report, but text similarity and plagiarism are not the same thing. The report helps locate matching sections. The percentage result alone does not determine whether a thesis is plagiarised. Therefore, we combine the analysis with checking how sources are used and the function of the specific section in the thesis. The next steps are explained in the guide whether plagiarism checkers detect AI and how to read a JSA report.
- Direct quote: we check how it is marked, cited, and justified within the argument.
- Paraphrase: we assess whether it uses your own wording, preserves the meaning, and identifies the source.
- Definitions and terminology: we consider the need to maintain conceptual precision.
- Legal acts and fixed formulations: we check the context and the method of quotation.
- Bibliography, tables, and appendices: we examine the type of marked content and its origin.
- Author's own commentary: we help clearly separate the author's analysis from the discussed findings.
We analyse the sections indicated in the report and make agreed changes to the text. We correct paraphrases, citations, and footnotes, preserving the meaning of the information and the source indication. Before starting, we define the scope of editing and the format for delivering the corrected document.
Result of the collaboration
Corrected file and information about the changes
You receive a document with the agreed revisions and comments on anything that needs to be added. We agree on how changes are marked and the file format before starting. You can commission editing of specific passages or agreed chapters.
Edited passages
File with corrected sections.
Organised citations
Organised paraphrases, citations and footnotes within the agreed scope.
Notes for further verification
Notes on required sources and connections between parts of the thesis. If a section requires a decision by the author or consultation with the supervisor, we will indicate this in a comment.
Tailored scope
How to commission corrections after a JSA report
We tailor the scope to the specified sections, their function in the thesis, and the supervisor's recommendations. You can commission a selected chapter or editing of marked areas throughout the document.
- Send the current thesis and the detailed report.
- Attach the specified sections or the supervisor's comments and the deadline.
- Let us agree on the scope, quote, and how the corrected document will be delivered.
First, analysis of markings
We compare the report with the current text and available publications. We distinguish between a quote, an overly literal discussion, a definition, and a standard phrase. We determine whether the way information is presented, the citation marking, the footnote, or the link to the bibliography needs correction.
Then, editing and checking connections
We re-edit the agreed sections, preserving meaning and references to the literature. We check transitions between paragraphs and the consistency of the changed text with the rest of the chapter. If a source or material to confirm information is missing, we point this out for completion.
You receive the revised passages and a list of issues that still need checking. Any further check in the university system follows your university’s procedure. If references throughout the document need attention, this work can be combined with the service “Reference list and citation corrections for your thesis”.
First step
Report, text and materials to start
Current version of the thesis
- Editable file of the thesis.
- Preferably a DOCX file with footnotes and bibliography.
- Indicate whether the support should cover the entire text or selected chapters.
Similarity report
- A detailed report or a list of passages that need editing.
- The percentage alone does not allow determining the scope of editing.
Sources and guidelines
- Available publications, bibliography and writing guidelines.
- Supervisor or university recommendations regarding the materials in question.
Comments and deadline
- Supervisor's comments and the required deadline.
- Describe the concerns raised and any revisions already made.
- Based on this, we determine the scope, turnaround time and quote.
Before contacting us
Questions about text correction after a JSA report
Does a high percentage of similarity mean plagiarism?
A percentage alone is not enough for such an assessment. We must check the indicated fragments, their sources, the citation style, and the context within the thesis. Our analysis helps determine the necessary editorial corrections; the evaluation of the report belongs to the supervisor.
How do you handle fragments indicated in the similarity report?
We compare the markings from the report with the current text and available publications. We restructure overly literal paraphrases, edit sentences and paragraphs, and organise citations and footnotes. We preserve the meaning of the content and references to the sources used. You will receive a file with the agreed changes; the scope of work, deadline, and method of showing corrections are determined after reviewing the materials.
Does a paraphrase require a source citation?
Yes, when it presents someone else's idea or finding. We check source attribution for both paraphrases and direct quotes. Verifying that a quote matches the original requires access to the cited publication.
Putting a sentence in your own words does not remove the need to acknowledge the source. However, this does not mean you must add a footnote to every sentence that sets out your own argument.
Can we start without a JSA report?
Yes. We can start by checking the citation style, the structure of paraphrases, and fragments indicated by you or your supervisor. Please send the current thesis and available source materials. If the order is to include markings from a JSA report, attach the detailed report along with the text it refers to.
What should I send for a quote?
Provide your topic, subject area, type of thesis, stage of preparation and required deadline. Describe what needs to be prepared, checked or revised. Attach the current document, university guidelines and any comments from your supervisor.
For research support, include your research outline, survey or interview guide and the data you have collected. For editing that addresses text similarity, attach your JSA report if you have one. You don't need every document before asking about the scope of support.
Do all highlighted fragments need to be rewritten?
Not always. A correctly marked quote, bibliographic entry, or citation of a legal provision requires assessment in context. We tailor changes to the actual problem, ensuring precision of terminology and consistency with the sources used.
What do the price and deadline depend on?
The volume of text requiring work, the type of issues, the quality of citations, the availability of sources, and the expected scope of changes. We provide a quote after reviewing the material and agreeing on what needs to be corrected.
