If your editor asks a question in a margin note, do not answer it in the margin note. Answer it in the manuscript.

Pro tip: “As such” does not mean "therefore." “Such” must refer to preceding noun. Yes: Jo is committee chair. As such, she decides … No: Jo likes pears. As such, she adds them to … #AmEditing"

Good morning. Today is the autumnal equinox in the Northern Hemisphere, the vernal equinox in the Southern Hemisphere. No need to capitalize these terms. Equinox combines "equal" and "night" — day and night are 12 hours.
