Anton, 1.Check your manuscript and ensure if it matches your target journal’s guidelines. Add any missing elements/sections or remove unnecessary sections. 2.Ensure each paragraph focuses on a single topic. 3.Confirm that the abbreviations used are consistent throughout the manuscript. 4.Ensure all figures, charts and tables are cited in the manuscript in numerical order. 5.Eliminate wordy and repetitive phrases.
