Who Should Consider Editing?

Language editing is recommended for authors who want assistance with grammar, clarity, and flow, especially when English is not their first language. Clear writing helps reviewers focus on the scientific contribution rather than language issues and improves the reader experience.

Preparing Your Draft

Before requesting editing, complete all analysis and ensure the manuscript is close to its final scientific content. Editing is most effective when the structure is stable and references are complete. Provide clear figure captions and tables to avoid delays and to keep terminology consistent.

What The Service Includes

How Editing Supports Peer Review

Clear language helps reviewers assess theoretical arguments, methods, and results without ambiguity. It also reduces avoidable revision cycles and improves the speed of editorial decisions. Editing can be especially helpful for interdisciplinary articles where specialized terminology must be explained carefully.

Files And Formatting

Submit editable files in standard formats such as DOCX or LaTeX, with figures and tables provided separately if possible. If you use specialized notation or non standard symbols, include a short note for the editor. This ensures that technical terms are preserved accurately.

What Editing Does Not Cover

How To Request Editing

Authors may request language editing before initial submission or after reviewer feedback. Send your manuscript and a brief note about the desired support level to the editorial office. We will confirm availability, scope, and estimated timelines.

If you are submitting to a special issue, note the issue title in your request so we can align the schedule with the issue deadlines.

Urgent requests can be considered when deadlines are tight, but availability depends on workload. Let us know your target submission date so we can confirm whether expedited support is possible. Early requests help avoid delays in peer review.

Turnaround And Confidentiality

Turnaround times vary based on manuscript length and complexity, but most requests are completed within 5 to 10 business days. All manuscripts shared for editing are treated as confidential and are handled according to journal privacy standards.

Authors remain responsible for final scientific accuracy and for addressing reviewer comments after editing. We recommend a final read through to confirm that terminology, data, and conclusions are correct.

Editorial support is provided as a service and may include a fee depending on the level of work required. We will confirm scope and cost before any edits begin, so you can decide whether to proceed.
