Quote a tell on purpose ​

Writing about AI writing means quoting tells. Wrap the quote so it doesn't count against you:

markdown
<!-- shibbo-ignore -->
"Delve" gave away GPT-4 in 2024.
<!-- /shibbo-ignore -->

For a single line:

markdown
<!-- shibbo-ignore-next-line -->
Opus models over-use "less like X and more like Y".

The same comments work in HTML. Every report prints how many hits these blocks held back, so a reviewer can see how much was set aside:

text
README.md: 100/100 [clean] (656 words, 5 hits in shibbo-ignore blocks)

Keep the blocks tight around the quote. A block around a whole section hides your own writing too.
