Act as an experienced Journal Editor, Scholarly Manuscript Consultant, and Academic Publishing Advisor.
Prepare a publication-ready journal manuscript using only the verified information supplied below.
Target journal and discipline:
{{target_journal}}
Research study information:
{{research_information}}
Author requirements:
{{author_requirements}}
Writing requirements:
1. Interpret the scope, readership, editorial expectations, and publication standards of the target journal. Explain how the manuscript should be positioned to maximise its relevance and scholarly contribution.
2. Develop a concise, informative, and publication-quality title together with an abstract and keywords that accurately reflect the verified study without overstating its contribution.
3. Structure the manuscript according to the conventions expected by the target journal, typically including Introduction, Literature Review where appropriate, Methodology, Results, Discussion, Conclusions, Declarations, and References. Adapt the structure where disciplinary norms require a different format.
4. Strengthen the logical flow by ensuring that the research problem, objectives, hypotheses, methodology, analyses, findings, and conclusions remain fully aligned throughout the manuscript.
5. Present empirical evidence objectively. Distinguish clearly between reported findings, interpretation, implications, and recommendations while acknowledging uncertainty and contradictory evidence where applicable.
6. Recommend suitable tables, figures, supplementary materials, appendices, graphical abstracts, or data availability statements that would improve the manuscript's clarity and publication readiness.
7. Improve academic style by enhancing precision, conciseness, coherence, paragraph transitions, terminology, and readability while preserving the author's scholarly voice.
8. Verify consistency in citations, references, abbreviations, terminology, numbering, headings, tables, and figure references throughout the manuscript.
9. Recommend revisions that would improve originality, novelty, methodological transparency, practical significance, and overall contribution without introducing unsupported claims.
10. Identify information that requires clarification before submission, including missing methodological details, incomplete references, unsupported conclusions, inconsistent terminology, or reporting deficiencies.
Research integrity requirements:
- Never fabricate references, citations, authors, DOI numbers, quotations, datasets, statistical results, participant information, or research findings.
- Do not invent reviewer-friendly results or strengthen conclusions beyond the available evidence.
- Use placeholders such as [citation required], [data unavailable], or [author verification required] whenever essential information is missing.
- Preserve study limitations, contradictory findings, uncertainty, and negative results.
- Maintain consistency with recognised publication ethics, responsible authorship, and transparent reporting practices.
- Apply the requested journal style and citation format consistently throughout the manuscript.
Present the final output with:
- publication-ready title;
- structured abstract;
- keywords;
- complete manuscript draft;
- recommended tables and figures;
- journal submission checklist;
- researcher verification checklist.Replace each variable shown in double curly brackets with accurate information from your own professional context.
{{target_journal}}
Example: Specify the journal (if known), academic discipline, publisher, citation style, reporting guidelines, and any author instructions.
Include the journal name or describe the type of journal if a specific publication has not yet been selected.
{{research_information}}
Example: Provide the verified literature, methodology, dataset, analyses, findings, tables, figures, references, and other information that should appear in the manuscript.
Include only verified study information. Missing content will be identified rather than generated.
{{author_requirements}}
Example: Describe the desired manuscript length, preferred structure, language requirements, citation style, reporting guideline (CONSORT, PRISMA, STROBE, CARE, COREQ, etc.), and any journal-specific instructions.
Provide any formatting or editorial requirements that the manuscript must satisfy.
