Editorial: Advice to authors: satisfying the referees

Page 213 | Published online: 18 Jul 2013
 

Abstract

The latest version of ‘Instructions to authors’ of papers for publication in British Corrosion Journal was printed in the second issue for 1987 and will be reprinted from time to time. These are the essential requirements for papers submitted for publication but it may be helpful to draw prospective authors' attention to points which will help to ensure that their papers pass quickly through the refereeing procedure and are likely to prove suitable for publication.

The prime objective of refereeing is to assist the Editorial Panel in maintaining the standard of British Corrosion Journal. When assessing a paper the referee is asked to advise whether the material has been presented in such a way that it can be easily understood. It must contain sufficient detail for readers to be able to assess the value of the information and the validity of the conclusions. Since space in the,Journal is limited, it is important that no unnecessary text is included but sufficient experimental detail must be given to enable readers to assess the reliability of the work reported.
