Template Principles
How Official Templates Should Be Used
Templates support professional publishing, but declarations must always be accurate and honest.
Submission Readiness
Templates help authors prepare title pages, declarations, references, ethics statements, data statements and final files before submission.
Policy Alignment
Every template should connect with relevant publisher policies such as authorship, AI use, conflict disclosure, consent, data availability and copyright.
Metadata Quality
Checklists support DOI readiness, Google Scholar metadata, citation tags, stable URLs, page ranges, license statements and archive records.
No Blind Copy-Paste
Authors should adapt template statements honestly. False declarations, fake ethics approvals, fake conflicts or copied references are not acceptable.
Version Control
Templates should be reviewed and updated periodically, with version number and last updated date where possible.

Important Template Notice
Templates Help Preparation, But They Do Not Guarantee Acceptance
Completion of a template or form does not guarantee publication, DOI assignment, Google Scholar visibility, indexing or acceptance. Every submission remains subject to editorial screening, review, policy checks and publication workflow.
Official Template Route
Use Current Official Forms and Keep Declarations Accurate
Authors should request updated templates when unsure and should never submit false declarations, fake approvals, fake conflicts or copied statements.
Downloads and Templates FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Basic questions about template access, manuscript files, declarations, book chapters, proceedings files and template usage.
Are all templates currently downloadable?
Some templates may be available on request or may be enabled after final file upload. Authors should use official publisher communication if a file is not directly downloadable.
Which template should I use for journal article submission?
Use the Journal Article Manuscript Template, Title Page Template, Author Declaration Form and any required declaration forms such as conflict, AI use, ethics or data availability.
Can I submit without using a template?
Where a journal or publication program requires a template, authors should use it. If no template is required, authors should still follow author guidelines and declaration policies.
Can templates guarantee publication?
No. Templates help prepare files correctly, but publication depends on editorial screening, review, ethics, originality, quality and policy compliance.
Can I modify official templates?
Authors may add required content, but should not remove important declaration sections, policy statements or required metadata fields.
Which forms are important for research involving human participants?
Authors should use ethical approval, informed consent, data availability, conflict disclosure and author declaration templates where applicable.
Do book chapters need separate templates?
Yes. Book chapters may use a chapter template, chapter author declaration, copyright/license confirmation and reference checklist.
How should completed files be named?
Use clear file names with journal short name, paper ID, short title, author surname or document type so files can be tracked easily.
