Share your manuscript, current reference list, and (optionally) EndNote/Zotero/Mendeley/BibTeX files, plus the target journal link/author instructions. You’ll confirm discipline, word limits, and submission timelines.
Scope & Style Lock
We finalize the required style (APA, MLA, Chicago, IEEE, Vancouver, Harvard, or journal-specific) and citation system (author–year, numeric, footnote). Any special rules—reference caps, dataset/code citations—are documented.
Citation–Reference Audit
Line-by-line cross-check: every in-text citation is matched to a reference entry; duplicates and orphans are flagged. We normalize author names, titles, journal names, volumes/issues, pages, and article numbers.
DOI & Link Validation
We locate missing DOIs, repair dead links, standardize HTTPS, and add required access dates. Persistent identifiers and publisher links are prioritized to improve discoverability and journal compliance.
Reference Manager Cleanup
EndNote/Zotero/Mendeley/BibTeX libraries are de-duplicated and field-standardized. Capitalization, edition/issue fields, and page ranges are fixed. We re-sync the library to the manuscript to prevent drift.
Journal Compliance & Indexing Readiness
We apply the journal’s “Instructions for Authors,” enforce sequence/format rules, and align titles, abstracts, and keywords. Optional checks for ORCID, dataset/code citations, and repository links enhance indexing readiness.
Author Review & Clarifications
You receive a change log and a brief query list (e.g., ambiguous sources, missing metadata). After your confirmations, we implement updates and re-verify numbering or author–year consistency.
Final Delivery & Support
Submission-ready files: corrected reference list, aligned manuscript, DOI/URL validation log, and cleaned library exports (.bib/.enl/.ris as applicable). Post-delivery support covers minor adjustments for 10 days.

Referencing & Citation Support — Frequently Asked Questions
Our Referencing & Citation Support ensures every in-text citation aligns with a complete, style-perfect reference entry and that DOIs/URLs, author names, titles, volumes/issues, and page ranges are verified for accuracy. We also advise on indexing-readiness (clean titles, abstracts, keywords, affiliations, and persistent identifiers like DOI/ORCID) to improve discoverability in scholarly databases. Explore related solutions under our Writing & Publishing Services and PhD & Academic Services, or view results from clients in 110+ countries in our Client Testimonials.
What exactly is included in Referencing & Citation Support?
We run a line-by-line audit of in-text citations and the reference list, fix mismatches, add missing metadata (authors, year, journal, volume/issue, pages, article numbers), validate DOIs/links, and format everything to your target style (APA/MLA/Chicago/IEEE/Vancouver/Harvard or journal-specific). You receive a clean, submission-ready reference list and an alignment report.
Which citation styles and journal rules do you follow?
We support APA (7th), MLA (9th), Chicago/Turabian, IEEE numeric style, Vancouver/ICMJE, Harvard variants, and publisher/journal “Instructions for Authors.” Share the guide or a recent article from your target journal and we’ll mirror their punctuation, capitalization, and ordering exactly.
Do you add DOIs and stable links for each reference?
Yes. Where available, we append DOIs in the correct display format and replace unreliable links with persistent identifiers. We also normalize URLs (https), add access dates when required, and flag inaccessible items for your review before submission.
Can you help when citations are missing or unsupported?
We highlight uncited claims and provide a shortlist of credible, peer-reviewed sources for your approval. After you confirm, we insert the new citations, create fully formatted entries, and keep numbering/author-year sequences consistent across the manuscript.
Do you work with EndNote, Zotero, Mendeley, or BibTeX?
Yes. We de-duplicate libraries, standardize fields, fix broken DOIs, tidy capitalization, merge duplicate records, and export compliant .bib/.enl/.ris files so future edits remain consistent. We can also sync your library to the final manuscript to prevent drift.
What does “indexing-ready” metadata mean for my paper?
It means your title, abstract, keywords, author names, affiliations, and references are consistent and machine-readable, with persistent identifiers (DOIs; optional ORCID iDs). Clean metadata helps databases correctly identify, link, and surface your work, supporting citations and discoverability.
Do you optimize titles, abstracts, and keywords for discoverability?
We suggest discipline-accurate keywords (not promotional), refine abstracts for clarity, and ensure titles and subtitles are consistent across the manuscript and submission portal. We can map your keywords to common indexing vocabularies used in your field.
Will you check figures, tables, and supplementary files for reference calls?
Yes. We verify that every figure/table/supplementary reference is cited in the text, numbered correctly, and listed consistently in captions and the submission system. We also confirm that dataset/code citations meet the journal’s requirements.
What deliverables will I receive at the end?
You get: (1) a style-compliant reference list, (2) an updated manuscript with aligned in-text citations, (3) a DOI/URL validation log, (4) cleaned reference-manager files (if provided), and (5) a change log documenting items needing author confirmation.
How long does the process take and how do I start?
Typical turnaround is 3–5 business days (faster options available for short lists or pre-submission checks). You can order online for a $50 starter audit, call us at +91-7065013200, or contact our team for a customized quote.
