1. Quick skim to glean the basic hypothesis of the article/text
2. Careful read to check the logical consistency
3. Extra careful read to see if it’s well-writter(usually, a function of brevity and coherence)
4. Editor mode.. look at spells, grammar, punctuation.. actually read out aloud etc..

I mostly indulge 1 or 2. Am trying to reduce the mode1 reading and increase mode 3 reading.
Let’s see.
