how to systematically improve your paper writing

As a non-native English speaker and writer, I always have following concerns:
Will an American write like this?
Can other peoples understand what I want to say?
How do other peoples describe what I observed in the experiment or calculations?

Here I point out that I do not want to be regarded as a native English speaker when Americans read my papers. What I want is to avoid awkward sentences and bad usages of some words.

Before I present my opinions, one thing I want to emphasize is the criteria of good English writing.
All similar things can be distinguished as bad, good, super bad, super good, medium, etc. Now let's have some agreement about what is good English writing.

First thing, or the most important thing is nothing to do with English. You SHOULD KNOW what you want to say? That means you should know what you want to say and why you want to say. Only after that, it is about English writing.

So the rule 1:
A good English paper should have a strong purpose, or a center idea. All the words should serve for the idea.

Rule 2.
A good English writing should be compact. Simplicity and easiness to understanding or no misunderstanding should be remembered. Keep your sentences short. Long sentences are boring. Short sentences keep your readers interested. Short sentences promote clarity.

Rule 3.
A good scientific paper should be professional, which means that your audiences are your peers and you should use the professional words of physics, mathematics, chemistry, economy, etc, all the time in your paper.

Rule 4.
If possible, always use active verbs, not passive verbs. For instance, "we bought bread" is better than "Bread was bought".

Rule 5.
Abolish Index words such as this, that, these, etc.

Rule 6.
Rephrase your sentences if you do not feel right. Change the way you said and see if it is better.

Rule 7.
Avoiding clutter in the paper. If possible, consider to combine two sentences.

Rule 8.
Be careful about the usage of subordinate clauses. If possible, eliminate it.

Rule 9.
Avoid dead sentences, like 'it can be ' or 'it is well known'.

Rule 10.
Revision if possible. I know it is boring. But if you can revise for 5 times after finishing writing, you will have a much better version.
