Experience: 9 years
I’m Wasim Sajad Bhat, proofreader and editor at astronautgamei.com. I ensure every guide and update about the Astronaut game reads clearly in English for players in India, with attention to local usage, dates, and device realities.
I started as a community translator on gaming forums and moved into copyediting for tech and gameplay content. Over the years I’ve edited patch notes, tutorials, and strategy pieces, balancing readability with precise detail. I work comfortably with style sheets, document versioning, and coordination between writers and subject‑matter reviewers. Adapting global material for Indian readers and maintaining clear change logs are recurring parts of my work.
I verify claims against current builds and official notes before publication. Hype is removed, speculation is labelled, and facts, tips, and opinion are separated. I favour plain English and short sentences, jargon is defined in a shared glossary. Numbers use metric, currency appears in INR where relevant, dates read 12 January 2025, and times are in IST. I check for regional sensitivities and ensure screenshots match the live version.
Each article starts with a brief, scope, and checklist. Drafts receive a language pass, a facts pass, and a final coherence pass. I return tracked edits with concise notes so authors understand the rationale. Our living style guide covers neutral tone, named sources in text, consistent terminology, alt text, mobile‑first layouts, and compression for low‑bandwidth users. Updates include timestamps and a short summary of changes.
I focus on steady improvement: tighter glossaries, clearer onboarding for new players, and quick updates when patches land. I plan to add more examples that reflect Indian play patterns and strengthen accessibility cues. Quality, for me, is reliability over time: if a page helps today and stays trustworthy after the next update, I’ve done my job.
