+### Verifying Your Contract
 
-Make sure you still have the address of the contract you deployed in the last article copied to the clipboard.
+First, ensure you have the address of the contract you deployed in the previous article copied to your clipboard.
 
-You can interact with your deployed contract using Remix, the same as before, but it's also possible to interact with it through BaseScan. Paste your address in the search field to find it.
+While you can interact with your deployed contract using Remix, you can also do so through sepolia.basescan.org. To find your contract, paste its address into the search field and click search. 
 
-On this page, you can review the balance, information about, and all the transactions that have ever occurred with your contract.
+On the contract page, you can review the balance, information, and all transactions associated with your contract.
 
-Click the _Contract_ tab in the main panel. At the top is a message asking you to _Verify and Publish_ your contract source code.

-For _Please Select Compiler Version_ select the version matching the `pragma` at the top of your source file. Our examples are currently using _v0.8.17+commit.8df45f5f_.
+For _Please Select Compiler Version_, select the version matching the `pragma` at the top of your source file. Our examples currently use _v0.8.17+commit.8df45f5f_.
 
-For _Please select Open Source License Type_ pick the license that matches what you selected for your contract as the `SPDX-License-Identifier`. Pick _None_ if you followed the Solidity-recommended practice of using `UNLICENSED`.

-### Interact with the Contract
+### Interacting with Your Verified Contract
 
-You can now interact with your contract using BaseScan. Click the _Read Contract_ button. Both of your functions will be listed here and can be tested using the web interface.
+Now that your contract is verified, you can interact with it using the web interface. Click the _Read Contract_ button to see a list of your contract's functions that can be tested.
 
-You won't have anything under _Write Contract_ because this contract doesn't have any functions that save data to state.
+Note that there won't be anything under _Write Contract_ if your contract doesn't have functions that modify its state.

 ## Conclusion
 
-With your contracts verified, you can interact with them using online tools and your users can be secure that your code does what you claim.
+With your contracts verified, you can begin to interact with them using online tools--and your users can be confident that your code does what you claim.
