Online Tracking: Use the manuscript management system to view real-time status updates (e.g., "Under Review", "Decision Pending") at Editorial Tracker

Email Updates: The editorial office will send emails at key stages (acknowledgement, reviewer assignment, decision). Keep administrative emails outbox available to receive messages from the journal.

Typical Status Stages

• Submitted: Manuscript successfully uploaded; awaiting administrative checks
• Initial Editorial Screening (Pre-QC): The editorial team checks fit, scope, formatting and ethical compliance. Manuscripts may be desk rejected at this stage for poor fit or serious ethical concerns.
• Under Peer Review: The manuscript has been sent to external reviewers. Review timelines vary by field; typical first-round review can range from 15 days
• Reviews Completed: Peer reviews have been returned and editors are evaluating.
• Decision Pending: Editor is making a decision based on reviews (accept, minor/major revision, or reject).
• Revision Required: Authors are asked to revise and resubmit; provide a point-by-point response to reviewer comments and a marked-up manuscript.
• Accepted / Rejected: Final editorial decision. If accepted, the paper moves to production.
• Copyediting & Typesetting: Manuscript is prepared for publication (formatting, style edits). Authors receive proofs for approval.
• Proofreading: Authors review proofs for minor errors; serious changes at this stage are not permitted without editor approval.
• Published Online: Article appears on the journal website.

Authors should contact the editorial office only if processing exceeds the journal's stated timelines; routine status queries should reference the manuscript ID.
