Can someone provide me useful links (URL) on Text Editing

Are you concerned with editing documents on a wordprocessing system, or with editing a text as a publisher will do it?

If the former: Vim: Seven habits of effective text editing

Thank you, Anglika.Do you know any links /resources concerning the latter

Not really - it's usually something you learn on the job. Editing is highly skilled and not something easily learned from a website.

There are some guidelines here: Proofreading

I have just completed a Fundamental Certification course in Tech Writing. I want to sharpen the saw by getting to know of any useful links / resources.

Just that, if there are any URLs which provide editing exercises which I can practice online.
