Journal articles come in many forms, including original research papers, literature reviews, position papers, technical papers, scientific papers, case reports, review articles and, more rarely from the perspective of the professional editor, letters and research notes. Each field, and indeed each journal, has its own set of conventions and requirements for scholarly writing for publication. Journal article editing guarantees that your paper correctly and meticulously follows all relevant language, style, referencing and formatting guidelines, and that all your ideas are clearly and succinctly expressed in line with the requirements of the journal. The services of a specialist academic editor, highly skilled in journal article professional editing, are certain to give you the best chance at publication.
Capstone Editing’s highly qualified and experienced editors are perfectly placed to provide you with the finest-quality journal editing available. Every year, we provide editing for hundreds of academics, helping them to achieve publication success. Our editors are drawn from a wide variety of fields and use their specialist knowledge as journal article editors to significantly increase your article’s chance of acceptance by your target journal.
