Article withdrawal Policy
Withdrawal Form
Withdrawing a paper during peer-review or (worse) during the production process after acceptance, but before publication, is an uncommon event that is not considered good scientific practice and must be done only in exceptional cases.
Keep in mind that reviewers and editors may already have spent time on the manuscript, and authors and editors are asked to work together to avoid a withdrawal and make the paper publishable.
If all the measures described in the pertinent Knowledge Base article are exhausted, authors can request a withdrawal using this form.
