Dear Acta Odontologica Turcica Reviewer,
Make sure you read the Criteria for Publication before reviewing a manuscript and presenting your recommendation to the Editor.
After
reading the manuscript, you are expected to give your comments on the
manuscript using the Manuscript Evaluation Form. This form consists of two parts: "Review notes" and "Recommendation".
The "Review notes" will be presented to the authors. In the "Review notes" part, you may freely express your thoughts about the manuscript, the strong and weak aspects of the study, the parts that need to be revised, etc. If you wish, you may mark changes directly on the manuscript file (using the Track Changes mode preferably), and upload this file to be forwarded to the authors. If you believe that the manuscript must not be published, you are expected to give reasons for this. In your crititiques, avoid using offensive language.
Enter your confidential comments to the Editor through the direct-message area in the system.
In the "Recommendation" part, you must choose one of the options: Accept, Reject, Major Revision or Minor Revision. If you recommend Revision, author will be asked to revise the manuscript according to the suggestions. Then, in a new round of review, author's revised version will be presented to you for your re-evaluation.
Should you have any question regarding the review process, you may contact the Editor.
