Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

Sirius Amory embarks on his quest to discover the true nature of the Keywork, the network of energy beams connecting the planets of Heaven's Fence. As he walks toward the shuttle doors, he thinks of his wife, Meri, the love of his life, who he invited to join him on this grand adventure but who, well aware of the danger, declined. Worried that Meri will not wait for him, he asks his ship's AI, the All Mother, if she will ever abandon him; but of course she will not. She is programmed to help him finish his task. Encouraged by her response -- artificial as it may be -- he ventures forward into the mysterious blue haze of the Keywork.
