What should I include with my revision? 

For general information about what to include in your revision, please see below: 

You will be unable to make your revisions on the originally submitted version of the manuscript.  Instead, revise your manuscript using a word processing program and save it on your computer.   

Highlight the changes to your manuscript within the document by using bold or coloured text. 

Only use citations that are relevant to your manuscript, and which directly and significantly contribute to the scholarly content of the paper. Authors should not self-cite nor cite their associate’s work unless such a citation is essential. The addition of citations to articles authored by the reviewer is strongly discouraged. You should provide an explanation of the relevance of any citation(s) added to your manuscript at the revision stage. 

Please delete any redundant files from your original files before completing the submission. These original files are available to you when you upload your revised manuscript.
