This is a blog post I’ll update over time to include quick editing tips to reduce your word count.

I’m just showing you how they seem to use gerunds in a series of three. They include multiple variations on the same word when one will suffice. Using CTRL+F to find -ing words means you can focus on editing sentences that are unnecessarily wordy.
