Authors submitting a manuscript must make sure they meet the following principles:
- The review process may take up to 2 months. After receiving the referees’ opinions, the editors will inform the authors about the decision made in relation to their submission, which may be accepted for publication without any changes, accepted for publication upon revision, or rejected altogether.
- The editors will send the authors the comments and suggestions made by the reviewers for the revisions of manuscripts accepted for publi-cation. In general, the authors must return the revised paper within 3 weeks, but an extension of this deadline may be granted if more tho-rough revision is necessary. In both cases, the revised paper will subsequently be re-evaluated by the editors and reviewers. If it is accepted, the manuscript is subjected to final editing procedures and resent to the authors in .pdf format, who must give their consent before the actual publication of the paper.
- If a manuscript is rejected during any stage of the reviewing process, the editors will inform the authors about the reasons underlying this decision. Authors are free to submit rejected manuscripts for publication elsewhere.
- Authors may submit for peer-review no more than two articles, review articles, and book reviews per year. Thus, an author may publish a maximum of two (themed/non-themed) articles, review articles, and/or book reviews in a volume of Onoma. Obituaries and notes do not fall under the aforementioned limitations, as they represent exceptional contributions.
