MATH FORMULAE
Math equations should be submitted as editable text, not as images. Present simple formulae in line with normal text where possible and use the solidus (/) instead of a horizontal line for small fractional terms, e.g., X/Y. In principle, variables are to be presented in italics. Equations that should be displayed separately from the text should be numbered consecutively. Equation 1, Equation 2 etc. in the text should be specified.

FOOTNOTES
Footnotes should be used if it is absolutely necessary and numbered throughout the manuscript regularly. Footnotes are built into many word processors and this is a viable option. If this is not the case, identify where footnotes should be placed in the text and present the footnotes separately at the conclusion of the manuscript. If this is not the case, identify where footnotes should be placed in the text and present the footnotes separately at the conclusion of the manuscript.

BOOK REVIEWS AND NOTES
A book review should be between 500-1000 words, including the scope of a review of the book, its contribution to knowledge and discussion in the context of architecture, planning and design. Comments should be written in Century Gothic 11 point with 1.15 line spacing. The name, institution, and e-mail address of the reviewer should be given. The book cover image must be provided in jpeg format. Title, author, source, publisher, date, number of pages, price and ISBN number should be provided as in the example below.

Book Name, Author Name Surname, Publication Year, Publisher, City, Number of Pages, Price, Volume Type, ISBN no.

BIOGRAPHY OF AUTHOR(S)
The short biographies of authors not longer than 100 words should be added after the references.

DepArch follows the advices in guidelines and flowcharts on COPE (Committee on Publication Ethics) for publication ethics. Peer-reviewed research serves as a basis for scientific method as well as a way of scientific method. In this sense, all stakeholders that has a role in the publishing process as the author, the journal editor, the peer reviewer, publisher, reviewers, and editors are expected to comply with the following ethical guidelines of the journal:
1.Ethical Responsibilities of Publisher
Article withdrawal, article retraction, removal and replacement policy
In cases the article must be withdrawn or removed after publication, DepArch electronic archive preserves all versions of the articles.
Article Withdrawal
The editors of our journal may “withdrawn” the articles in Press (articles that have been accepted for publication but which have not been formally published and will not yet have the complete volume/issue/page information) in violation of our journal publishing ethical guidelines (such as multiple submission, fraudulent claims of authorship, plagiarism, dishonest use of data or the like).
Article Retraction
Multiple submissions, fraudulent claims of authorship, plagiarism, dishonest data usage, and the like are all examples of professional ethical code violations. A retraction may be used to remedy mistakes in submission or publishing on rare occasions. It is an infrequent occurrence in the scientific community that an article is withdrawn by its authors or editor on the advice of members of the scientific community.
A number of library and scholarly groups have created standards for dealing with retractions, and DepArch has accepted this best practice for article retraction:
• The authors and/or the editor sign a retraction note headed "Retraction: (manuscript title)" which is published in the paginated portion of a subsequent issue of the journal and included in the contents list.
• A link to the original article is included in the electronic edition.
• A screen with the retraction notice appears before the online article. The link resolves to this screen, and the reader can then proceed to the article itself.
• The original article is kept intact, with the exception of a watermark on the.pdf showing that it has been "retracted" on each page.
• The HTML version of the document is removed.
Article removal: legal limitations
It may be required to remove an article from the online database in a highly limited number of circumstances. When the article is plainly libelous or violates the legal rights of others, or when the article is, or when we have reason to believe it will be, the subject of a court order, if acted upon, might represent a substantial health risk, it will be necessary to remove the article. In these cases, the text will be replaced by a screen explaining that the item has been removed for legal reasons, however the metadata (Title and Authors) will be preserved in definite situations.
Article replacement
The original article's authors may decide to retract the incorrect original and replace it with a revised version in circumstances when acting on the item might result in a major health risk. In these cases, the retraction procedures will be followed. The database retraction message will vary in that it will include a link to the rectified re-published article and a document history.
