A comprehensive, final preflight checklist designed for submitting scientific manuscripts to top-tier journals. It ensures every critical element—from statistical rigor, data availability, and ethical compliance to formatting, figures, and references—is fully resolved, preventing editorial rejection or major revisions upon initial submission.

This guide provides a comprehensive preflight checklist for submitting academic manuscripts to specialized journals (e.g., Social Forces via ScholarOne). It details critical compliance points such as double-anonymization, adherence to the 10,000-word limit (including references), panel count limits, and mandatory style requirements (Chicago 17th). It is designed to help authors catch common formatting and anonymity failures before official submission.

This guide outlines the rigorous standards required for submitting top-tier academic papers, such as those for ACM SIGCOMM. It instructs authors on how to transition from general claims to highly evidence-based arguments by focusing on measured operational pain, defining design principles, and pairing every performance claim with concrete testbed, trace, or deployment evidence. Essential for researchers in networking and systems.

This workflow router is designed for academic researchers targeting top-tier strategy journals. It does not write the paper but acts as a systematic guide, analyzing the current state of your manuscript—from vague ideas to final submission—and recommending the precise next specialized skill needed. It ensures that the paper is systematically improved across theory development, methodological rigor, data analysis, and contribution framing, guiding the author through the entire publication lifecycle.

A comprehensive guide designed for the late-stage polishing of academic manuscripts, specifically targeting submissions to top-tier journals. It focuses on enhancing clarity, improving argument flow, adhering to strict academic house conventions (such as dual abstracts and APA style), and refining prose. This skill ensures the research contribution is clearly articulated and immediately visible to the reader, optimizing the structure and polish of the final paper.

A comprehensive guide for constructing non-empirical, theoretical figures for sociological theory manuscripts. It details how to design conceptual exhibits—including mechanism diagrams, process models, typologies, and concept maps—that carry theoretical work. Crucially, it emphasizes that these figures must illustrate mechanisms or classifications, and must never include raw data, regression tables, or empirical results.

This comprehensive guide provides a final pre-submission checklist for authors submitting theoretical manuscripts to Sociological Theory (ST). It details critical requirements, including adherence to ASA style, ensuring double-anonymous masking, verifying conceptual contributions, and meeting specific journal formatting and ethical guidelines. Designed specifically for theory-only papers, it guides authors through the submission preparation process.

A comprehensive guide for authors revising high-stakes academic papers, such as those for SOSP. It teaches how to shift focus from merely listing features to articulating core design principles, building a compelling 'Problem-to-Insight' arc, and structuring evidence-based arguments within strict length constraints. Essential for academic researchers and technical writers.

This guide details best practices for structuring supplementary material in highly technical academic submissions (e.g., STOC). It teaches authors how to design an appendix that facilitates selective verification by reviewers, ensuring that complex proofs, deferred results, and extended discussions are navigable. Key techniques include optimizing the Table of Contents, maintaining strict pointer discipline, and distinguishing between material required for core understanding versus material saved for the full version.

A comprehensive preflight checklist designed for submitting academic manuscripts to major journals. It ensures strict compliance with publishing standards, covering double-blind anonymization, required AI disclosure statements, ORCID linking, adherence to specific formatting rules (e.g., Chicago style, page limits), and data authenticity requirements for research integrity.

A comprehensive guide for authors submitting interactive system papers to UIST. It details the required narrative arc (walkthrough before mechanism), emphasizes technical specificity in implementation details, and provides rules for designing figures and structuring the argument within strict page limits.

A comprehensive guide for revising visualization research papers for top-tier conferences and journals (e.g., IEEE VIS/TVCG). It mandates shifting focus from aesthetic design to rigorous, task-grounded contributions. Users learn how to justify every visual encoding and interaction based on the analytical task, ensure evaluation methods match the contribution type, and structure the narrative around the data-task problem.
