Your Turnitin guidance is moving!
We’re migrating our content to a new guides site. We plan to fully launch this new site in July. We are making changes to our structure that will help with discoverability and content searching. You can preview the new site now. To help you get up to speed with the new guidance structure, please visit our orientation page .
Using strikethrough text
Strikethrough marks indicate that text should be deleted.
Adding strikethroughs
- Selecting a piece of text, you have the option to strike through a piece of text, instead of adding an inline comment. Choose the S icon to strike through.
Deleting strikethroughs
- Hover over the text with your mouse and click the trash can icon that appears above.
- A banner confirming your deletion will appear at the top of the paper. If you change your mind, click Undo from the banner to reinstate your strikethrough text.
