Editorialin

Editorialin is a conceptual framework in digital publishing that describes the integration of editorial policy with automated and human review processes to ensure content quality prior to publication. It encompasses style guidelines, fact-checking, copyediting, plagiarism checks, version control, and audit trails, relying on a combination of human editors and automated tools to route, review, and approve material.

The term is a neologism formed from "editorial" and the suffix "-in" to indicate a state or system. It has circulated in discussions about AI-assisted editing and publishing workflows.

In practice, editorialin-like workflows are implemented in some content management systems to automate checks and logging while preserving human oversight.

Critics argue that the term is vague or overlaps with existing concepts such as editorial workflow and content governance.
