This was a question from one of our EIC Info Sessions. Our answer: TSW provides a robust Google Doc that has information, advice, and templated text for each phase of the project. It is TSW’s responsibility to guide EICs throughout each phase. For the editing phase in particular, we have a recommended structure for EICs to follow. For example, we recommend EICs do no more than three rounds of edits with each contributor, and we also set this expectation with contributors, so they are aware of what they need to get done by the final deadline. This type of recommendation/structure is put in place to respect our EIC’s time: most writers/editors know that you could edit/revise endlessly, and so our recommended 3 back-and-forths is the number of revisions we feel helps take a piece from selection to publication. However, as EICs, you are welcome to approach editing from your style and approach as well. If you wanted to do 4 ot 5 rounds of edits with a contributor, that is up to you. We had additional guidance on what each editing phase could look like. We will work with EIC to ensure they feel confident in their approach.
