We help you prepare your own manuscript to a Wiley journal's Author Guidelines, including anonymised main text, separate title page, data sharing statement and the journal's reference style.

Wiley manuscript support at Shodhyantri helps scholars meet the requirements of Wiley and Wiley-Blackwell journals before they open the submission site. Many Wiley journals run peer review on ScholarOne Manuscripts, while others now use Wiley's Research Exchange submission system. Both expect the same thing from you: a manuscript prepared to that journal's Author Guidelines, with the right files separated, anonymised where needed and clearly labelled.
We support PhD and Master's scholars across India and international authors in health sciences, psychology, education, business, life sciences and engineering. Your argument, data and interpretation remain your own. We edit language, fix structure, prepare the title page and statements, and point out where a reviewer is likely to ask questions. All changes are tracked so you can review them with your supervisor and co-authors.
Wiley publishes a very wide range of journals, many of them for learned societies. Requirements are therefore set journal by journal in the Author Guidelines. Common features include a separate title page with author details, a main document anonymised for double-blind or single-blind review, a structured or unstructured abstract, keywords, and statements on funding, conflicts of interest, ethics and data availability.
Wiley has a data sharing policy framework under which journals encourage, expect or mandate data sharing, and authors state where data can be found. Many Wiley journals also accept free-format initial submissions, but reference styles, word counts and figure requirements still apply at revision. Supporting information files are published online alongside the article, so they must be clean and correctly numbered.
Self-citations, acknowledgements and file metadata can reveal identity. We check the main document carefully so double-blind review is not compromised.
Many Wiley journals belong to societies with long-standing style conventions. We follow those conventions rather than a one-size template.
Wiley journals ask authors to state where data are available. We help you write accurate statements that match your ethics approval and consent.
Health and psychology journals often want structured abstracts with fixed headings. We restructure your abstract to the headings the journal names.
Supporting files appear online as you submit them. We tidy numbering, labels and captions so they reflect well on your work.
We edit and structure; the research and conclusions are yours. Every change is tracked so the final paper reflects your own decisions.
Ten stages, each with a clear output. Nothing moves to the next stage until you have reviewed the last one.
— You review every stage first, then decide —
Confirm the journal's review model, data policy and article type rules before editing begins.
Search the main document, file properties and self-citations for anything that reveals author identity.
Verify abstract headings, word count and keywords exactly match the Author Guidelines.
Confirm data, ethics and funding statements agree with methods text and the title page.
Check references, headings, units and numbers follow the journal's chosen style throughout.
Confirm title page, main text, figures and supporting information are separate and correctly labelled.
Every stage is shared with notes explaining what was changed and why. You and your supervisor check it, and the next stage starts only after your go-ahead.
| Common problem | How Shodhyantri helps |
|---|---|
| Leaving author names in the Word file properties of an anonymised manuscript. | Remove document properties and personal information before saving the anonymised file for upload. |
| Writing self-citations as in our previous study, which reveals identity. | Cite your earlier work in the third person, or mask it as the journal instructs for blind review. |
| Using an unstructured abstract where the journal requires fixed headings. | Rewrite the abstract under the exact headings listed in the Author Guidelines, staying within the word limit. |
| Stating data are available on request without checking the journal's data policy. | Check whether the journal expects deposit in a repository, and explain any legal or ethical limits on sharing. |
| Numbering supporting information inconsistently, such as Table S1 then Appendix B. | Use one numbering scheme for all supporting files and cite each item at the right place in text. |
| Ignoring reporting guidelines for clinical or observational studies. | Follow the relevant guideline, such as CONSORT or STROBE, and complete the checklist if the journal asks. |
Check whether the journal uses double-blind, single-blind or transparent review before you prepare files.
Put author names, affiliations, ORCID iDs and acknowledgements together on the title page from the start.
Where initial free format is allowed, still keep references complete so later restyling is quick.
Find out whether your Wiley journal encourages, expects or mandates data sharing, and plan accordingly.
Read two recent papers in the journal to see headings, tone and table layouts readers expect.
Include only material that genuinely supports the paper; very large supplements can slow review.
State conflicts clearly, or state that there are none; vague wording invites editorial queries later.
Quote the ethics committee name and approval number exactly as they appear on your approval letter.
Your work is handled by people who read your field's literature, not by a single generalist.
A PhD-qualified specialist from your field who checks the research logic, gap and contribution.
Handles statistics, models and qualitative coding, and documents every analytical decision.
Improves structure, flow, clarity and academic tone without changing your meaning.
Builds and validates MATLAB, Python, ANSYS or COMSOL work where your study needs it.
Checks grammar, consistency, numbering, citations and the small errors examiners notice.
Applies your university or journal template, reference style and front matter exactly.
Many Wiley journals use ScholarOne Manuscripts, and a growing number use Wiley's Research Exchange system. The journal's Author Guidelines page links to the correct site. File requirements are similar, and we prepare your files so they can be uploaded on either platform.
It means removing anything that identifies the authors from the main document, including names, affiliations, acknowledgements, funding details that reveal identity, first-person self-citations and file metadata. These details go on a separate title page that reviewers do not see in blind review.
Many do. Wiley journals follow a data sharing policy that ranges from encouraging to mandating sharing. The statement explains where data can be accessed or why they cannot be shared. We help you write one that matches your ethics approval.
No. Editors and peer reviewers decide whether to accept a paper. We cannot and do not promise acceptance or any timeline. What we can do is remove avoidable formatting, language and compliance problems so reviewers focus on your research.
Yes. Society journals often carry their own conventions on style, abstract headings and references. We read the journal's guidelines and recent articles and edit to match. If the society has a style manual, please share it or we will locate it.
No. We do not change your data, results or conclusions. If we notice reporting gaps, such as missing effect sizes or unclear sample sizes, we flag them in comments so you can decide what to add from your own analysis.
No. This page covers manuscript preparation. Responding to reviewer comments, revising after review, tracking status and checking proofs are part of our separate Wiley publication support service, which you can request when you receive a decision.
We provide research guidance, statistical analysis, editing, formatting and training support. All research content remains the scholar's own work, in line with UGC and university academic integrity norms. We do not guarantee publication, acceptance, indexing or academic outcomes: journals decide through peer review and universities award degrees.
Share your topic, draft or data. We will tell you honestly what it needs, and what it does not, before you pay anything.
