Use Text Statistics to Improve Readability
Writers often rely on intuition for readability, but metrics can reveal hidden problems quickly. Extremely long paragraphs, weak sentence variation, or uneven section lengths are easier to detect when you review word and line statistics before publish.
A useful pattern is to compare section metrics inside one article. If one section is far denser than the others, split it into smaller units. If sentence count is low for total length, add transitions and examples to reduce cognitive load.
These checks should support writing quality, not replace it. You still need editorial judgment, especially for technical or legal topics where precision matters more than short sentences.
When used consistently, statistics help teams maintain predictable reading experience across many pages and contributors.
