Uploading the Article Template

The article template is the file authors use when they prepare their articles. Once the template has passed the virus scan, it can be downloaded from the journal page with the Manuscript template button.

1. Open the journal with Manage journal and go to the Guidelines & review criteria tab.
2. Drop the file on the Upload a template area of the Article template card.

You can upload a DOCX, ODT or PDF file. For a LaTeX template, upload a ZIP file. The upload is saved at once, and your other unsaved changes on the tab are kept. While the scan runs, the card says that the file is being scanned. If the file does not pass the scan, the card says why, and the template does not appear on the journal page. In that case, upload a smaller or clean copy of the file. If the card says that the file is missing from the file store, uploading the same file again is enough.

Replacing and removing the template

• Uploading a new file replaces the previous one.
• The Remove the template button removes the template from the journal page. The file itself stays in the library.
• If you may see draft catalogue records or manage the file library, the Choose from the file library button appears too. With this button you select a document in the library and press Use as template. Files linked to a catalogue record cannot be templates.
• The list starts with the newest files of the library. You can also find a document by typing its name in the Search by file name box. If the library has more than 1,000 files, the list looks at the newest 1,000 and a note says so. Search for an older document by its name.

Template changes are written to the audit log. The checklist for TR Dizin (Türkiye's national citation index) suggests adding a template, and the Fix link in the checklist takes you straight to this card.
