A GGS manuscript is most often sent back for formatting, not content: margins, front-matter order, and page numbering. The editorial office checks these before anything else. This template sets the correct structure from the first draft, following the Gazi University Gazi University Journal of Science formatting guidance.
It is a formatting shell for a GGS manuscript, built to the official rules. It covers the title page, approval/signature page, abstract, table of contents, chapters, references, and appendices, with a consistent citation style. Confirm the current requirements in the official guidelines before you begin.
Set up the front matter and chapters in the required order, apply the correct margins and spacing from the manual, and use the prescribed citation style throughout. Keep figures and tables captioned and numbered as specified.
The signature failure mode is margin, front-matter order, and page-numbering rules. Second is inconsistent citations. Third is missing or out-of-order front matter. Fix all three against the official guidelines before submitting.
The shell mirrors what the editorial office checks first: structure order, margins, and citation consistency. Use the Gazi University Gazi University Journal of Science formatting guidance as the source of truth.
| Element | GGS requirement |
|---|---|
| Figures/tables | Captioned and numbered per manual |
| Keywords | Not more than five keywords. Key words reflecting the major features of the work should be inserted. |
| References | Numbered citation style (sequential). Literature references are to be numbered consecutively and grouped together at the end of the paper under the heading 'References'. In the text, references are quoted by giving the corresponding numbers in square brackets. Specific formats are provided for journal papers, books, theses, congress presentations, reports, newspapers, electronic sources, and web pages. |
| Peer review | Double-blind (double-anonymous). The journal follows a double-blind reviewing procedure. Authors are requested to submit a blinded manuscript without any author names and affiliations in the text, and a separate title page containing author information. |
