Interlibrary Loan

This is the message as the crawl holds it, before anything here touched it. What the conversation shows has been through ingest: transfer encodings decoded, attachments dropped, quote markers repaired, and the archiver’s ? resolved into quotation marks and dashes. Those repairs are judgements and some of them are wrong, which is what this page is for. Email addresses are obscured here as they are everywhere else on the site, so it is before our repairs rather than byte for byte.

Marc, I think you just negated your reasons for not wanting to write up ILL.  It sounds like some level of editorial meddling is the norm. 

Going back to the gentleman's question, is it even possible to publish a manuscript as submitted with no editing?   Surely there has to be a check for grammar, punctuation, spelling, missing words, etc.
