How this week was made

What we went through. The paper was written from 58 videos from 24 channels, 20 hours 55 minutes in all. Every one was transcribed.

What made the paper. 21 of them are cited in the paper. It also cites 1 video from outside these. It has 57 quotes. Every quote was checked against the transcript of the video it comes from, and its footnote links to that video.

What the editor (still just me) did. Our system wrote a first draft of 3,563 words. I read all of it, checked every quote against its video, and thoroughly edited it. I cut 97 of its 127 lines, rewrote 6 and added 13 of my own. I also found and credited 1 picture and placed 3 on the cover and pages. The paper as it stands is 1,382 words. An edition generally takes me about half a day.
