Submission Preparation Checklist

As part of the submission process, authors are required to check off their submission's compliance with all of the following items, and submissions may be returned to authors that do not adhere to these guidelines.
  • The submission has not been previously published, nor is it before another journal for consideration (or an explanation has been provided in Comments to the Editor).
  • The submission file is in OpenOffice, Microsoft Word, or RTF document file format.
  • Where available, URLs for the references have been provided.
  • The text is single-spaced; uses a 12-point font; employs italics, rather than underlining (except with URL addresses); and all illustrations, figures, and tables are placed within the text at the appropriate points, rather than at the end.
  • The text adheres to the stylistic and bibliographic requirements outlined in the Author Guidelines.
  • The maximum number of authors permitted per manuscript is six (6) authors (including the principal investigator, co-investigators, and student assistants). All listed authors must have made a substantial intellectual and practical contribution to the community service project. Any additional contributors who do not meet the authorship criteria should be recognized in the Acknowledgments section at the end of the manuscript.
  • In accordance with publishing ethics, our journal has established clear boundaries regarding the use of generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) and AI-assisted technologies (such as ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, etc.) in the preparation of manuscripts:
    No AI as Co-Author: Generative AI tools (such as ChatGPT) cannot be listed as an author.
    Allowed Use: Authors may use AI tools only for grammar correction, spelling checks, and improving language readability.
    Prohibited Use: AI must not be used to write the main content, analyze community service data, or create fake field photos.
