The response that is NOT involved in revising at the sentence level is:
"Cut prepositional phrases wherever possible."
While it can be useful to evaluate the use of prepositional phrases, the directive to cut them "wherever possible" is too broad and does not necessarily contribute to effective sentence-level revision. Effective revision should focus on clarity, variety, and precision rather than simply eliminating prepositional phrases.
