Post-Acceptance Processing

Once a manuscript has been formally accepted for publication, the corresponding author will be notified that the article has entered the copyediting and production process.

During copyediting, the manuscript is reviewed for language clarity, formatting consistency, reference accuracy, and compliance with the journal’s editorial and stylistic standards. Authors may be contacted regarding editorial queries or requests for clarification during this stage.

Following copyediting, page proofs are provided to the corresponding author for final review. Authors are responsible for carefully reviewing the proofs, responding to editorial queries, and submitting any necessary corrections within the requested timeframe.

After proof corrections are completed and the final version is approved, the article proceeds to production and online publication.
