Editing Symbols

A great blog post over on Janet Reid's blog about editing symbols. As anyone who has got anything back from an editor knows, those little editing symbols crop up like weeds over ones work - but for a newbie there's always the question of what the darn things mean. Ms. Reid shows the basic definitions....

Then she goes on to hypothesize about a few extra possible symbols that are missing from the basic lexicon... 

 And then a few more...
 Then the standard symbols but with alternative meanings...
