1. Read the editor's feedback carefully: editors usually make some suggestions on the structure, grammar and wording of articles. Read these opinions carefully and find out what the editor wants to improve.
2. Modify one by one: modify one by one according to the feedback from the editor. For obvious problems such as grammatical mistakes and spelling mistakes, we should correct them immediately. For the structural and logical problems of the article, we should seriously think about it and make corrections.
3. Keep the original intention: In the process of polishing, don't change the original intention of the article. If you have questions about some suggestions of the editor, you can communicate with the editor, but don't change the core idea of the article at will.
4. Ask peers or mentors: In the process of polishing, please ask peers or mentors to listen to their opinions and suggestions. They may make some valuable suggestions from different angles.
5. Use professional polishing service: If you feel that your English level is not enough to complete the polishing task, you can consider using professional polishing service. These services are usually provided by experienced professionals and can help you improve the quality of your articles.
6. Pay attention to the format and quotation: In the process of polishing, pay attention to the format and quotation of the article. Ensure that the articles meet the requirements of periodical format and the references are accurate.
7. Reply to the editor in time: After polishing, send the revised article to the editor in time. At the same time, you can attach a thank-you letter to express your gratitude to the editor.
In short, when SCI contributors ask for retouching, they should take it seriously and make changes according to the requirements of editors. By polishing, the quality of the article can be improved and the possibility of being accepted can be increased.
