One thing to look at
- 0 stars0 stars. Stars are a popularity signal and not a quality one, but at this level it is likely that nobody has read this closely except its author, and you would be relying on your own review.
What its author says it does
Copied from the file, not written here
Use when editing live SCI LaTeX sources, Overleaf exports, arXiv source packages, figures, tables, citations, author blocks, labels, refs, packages, or appendix files

SCI LaTeX Editing
Overview
Make surgical LaTeX changes without destabilizing the manuscript.
Core principle: small scoped patches beat broad rewrites.
Required Background
Use this strategy even when no project-specific TeX guide exists.
Edit Order
Prefer editing:
- one paragraph
- one subsection
- one section
- one
sections/*.tex main.texonly when necessary
Checks
After structural edits, check:
\input{}paths- labels and refs
- citation keys and bibliography order
- figure/table file paths
- package color/style definitions
- arXiv path compatibility
Output
- exact files changed
- compile risk notes
- Overleaf/arXiv instructions if user compiles externally
Common Mistakes
- Moving files without updating
\input. - Fixing prose and restructuring TeX in the same pass.
- Leaving local absolute paths in public packages.
- Using non-ASCII paths in source package references.
