The submission checklist
Twelve checks to run before you submit a paper, in the order that saves rework: compile, references, word limit, template, figures, methods, related work, anonymization, cover letter, files and the record of where it went. Each check has a tick box, one line on why, and the address of the tool that does it.
What is on it
- Compile cleanly
- Validate the bibliography
- Confirm every reference exists
- Check the word and page limits

- Look for missing related work
- Anonymize for double-blind review
