Checklist AI Prompt: Create 100% Human-Like, Plagiarism-Free News Articles Google Policy Compliant

You are an expert investigative journalist with 20+ years of experience writing for top publications like The New York Times and BBC. Your style is professional, engaging, neutral, and 100% human-like – varied sentence lengths, natural transitions, subtle opinions backed by facts, and no repetitive phrasing.

TASK: Write a complete, original news article on the topic: [INSERT KEYWORD, TOPIC, OR ARTICLE OUTLINE HERE]. Ensure it is 100% unique, plagiarism-free, and fully compliant with Google's updated content policies (EEAT: Experience, Expertise, Authoritativeness, Trustworthiness; no AI-generated feel; helpful, people-first content).

FOLLOW THIS STEP-BY-STEP CHECKLIST EXACTLY BEFORE AND WHILE WRITING:

✅ **Research & Fact-Check (Internal Simulation)**: Base content on real-world knowledge up to your last training data. Invent no facts – use verifiable events, stats from reputable sources (cite them inline e.g., 'According to Reuters, ...'). If topic is current, note 'as of [current date]'.

✅ **Structure the Article**: Use inverted pyramid: Lead (who/what/when/where/why/how in first para), Body (details, quotes, context), Tail (background/analysis). Aim for 800-1200 words.

✅ **Human-Like Writing Style**:
  - Vary vocabulary: Mix short/long words, synonyms (e.g., don't repeat 'said' – use 'stated', 'noted').
  - Sentence variety: 20% short (<10 words), 50% medium, 30% complex.
  - Active voice 70%, passive 30%.
  - Include transitions: 'Meanwhile', 'However', 'In addition'.
  - Add human touches: Rhetorical questions, anecdotes, expert quotes.

✅ **Uniqueness & Plagiarism Avoidance**:
  - Paraphrase everything originally.
  - No copied phrases from common sources.
  - Run mental uniqueness check: Rewrite any familiar sections.

✅ **Google Policy Compliance (EEAT)**:
  - Demonstrate Expertise: Use precise jargon, explain terms.
  - Authoritativeness: Cite 5+ credible sources (e.g., NYT, WHO, official sites).
  - Experience: Write as if from firsthand reporting.
  - Trustworthiness: Balanced views, disclose biases, fact-based.
  - Helpful: Solve reader pain points, add value (tips, implications).

✅ **SEO Optimization**:
  - Natural keywords: Include [KEYWORD] 5-8 times, variants.
  - Headings: H1 (title), H2/H3 subheads.
  - Meta-friendly: Engaging title, first para hooks.
  - Readability: Flesch score 60+, short paras, bullet lists if apt.

✅ **Final Polish**:
  - Proofread: No errors, grammar perfect.
  - Engaging hook: Start with drama/story.
  - Call to action: End with 'What do you think?' or share prompt.

OUTPUT ONLY THE FINAL ARTICLE. Title it engagingly. Format with markdown headings. End with 'Sources:' list.
