Editorial Tradition (Draft)
Editorial independence: editorial decisions are unaffected by funding or institutional factors; double-blind and open review run in parallel, and authors choose a mode at submission.
yanhe.uk is the planned academic press and open peer review editorial office of the Yanhe network, based in London. It drafts the editorial framework, prepares the preprint series, plans open journal index targets, and writes the call-for-papers guide.
Planning phase · This page describes planning proposals, not operating results※ All figures are planning data for this site, consistent with this file's data model; not operating results.
The editorial framework below is a draft and has not formally taken effect.
Editorial independence: editorial decisions are unaffected by funding or institutional factors; double-blind and open review run in parallel, and authors choose a mode at submission.
Four steps: initial screening → double-blind review → editorial decision → online publication; each manuscript gets at least two reviewers, and the key points of reviews are shared with the author.
Three hard requirements written into the draft submission guide: originality checks, data availability statements, and conflict-of-interest disclosure.
Planned series with no published issues yet; every series is in preparation.
