Credit and accountability
Every author should make a substantive contribution, approve the submitted and published content, and accept appropriate accountability. Other contributions should be acknowledged with permission and described accurately.
Authorship changes
Addition, removal, or reordering requires explanation and documented agreement from those affected. Editors may request evidence.
ORCID
ORCID identifiers are encouraged where available. Providing or displaying one does not imply mandatory authentication or organizational integration.
AI tools
AI tools cannot be authors or co-authors. Human authors remain responsible. See the AI policy.
