Ethical Guidelines & Plagiarism Policy

Plagiarism happens when someone portrays the work of another (data, text, or theories) as if it were his/her own without giving due credit. There are several levels of plagiarism. The severity is determined by the extent of the copied content, the originality of the copied material, the position/context/type of material, and the referencing/attribution of the material utilized. Because each situation is unique, choices will differ from one another.

Plagiarism examples include, but are not limited to:

Copying someone else’s work verbatim and submitting it as one’s own.
Significant parts of content are copied verbatim from a single source.
‘Patchwork copying’ is the practice of combining verbatim copied content from several sources. This might be as little as one or two paragraphs or as much as many paragraphs.
Changing key words and phrases while maintaining the source’s fundamental material as a framework.
Rephrasing the original words and/or structure of the material and presenting it as one’s own.
Mixing slightly reworked content from many sources and presenting what has already been published as new.
The work is mentioned, however the sections that are quoted are not properly specified. This can be coupled with sections of the text that have been copied without citation.

Note

Please keep in mind that the preceding is not directly relevant to review papers. Review articles are designed to provide a synopsis of the current literature. Except for appropriately quoted and/or mentioned sources, authors should use their own words, and the work should incorporate a novel viewpoint.

Copyright & Licensing Content Ownership

Authors maintain publication rights and have the freedom to replicate and distribute their work.
Authors who require a deviation from this guideline should notify the Journal when submitting their manuscript.
Article and content reprinting (Licensing policy) The Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License governs all content (CC BY 4.0).
This license promotes open access by giving instant free access to and unlimited reuse of original content.
This licensing policy applies to all articles or content, as well as all versions of such content. Figures, tables, and photos are all included.
Authors agree to make their content legally accessible for reuse without permission or payment under this license.
These articles may be copied, distributed, or reused by anybody as long as the author and original source are correctly attributed.

Peer Review Process

Every author’s draft is undergone a Double blind review process at WJME Journal. The process, as we are aware of, involves a closed review of the manuscript by two peers, concealing the identities of the author and the reviewers. The sole reason for blind review is to avoid any conscious or sub conscious bias.
You submit your manuscript through the email - editorial@wesro.org
The editorial team checks that the paper falls within the scope of law and the economic science, that it follows the formatting requirements, and that it passes the plagiarism check (Turnitin / iThenticate). A paper that does not pass screening is not sent for review.
The paper is sent to two independent reviewers with expertise in its subject. Authors and reviewers are not told each other’s identities at any stage.
The decision depends on the reports of both reviewers. If either reviewer recommends rejection, the paper is referred for editorial review, and the final decision rests on that editorial assessment. The Editor-in-Chief’s decision is final.
If the reviewers ask for changes, you are told exactly what is needed. The paper goes forward only once the required changes have been made.
The accepted manuscript will go to publication after completing APC, final editing and proofreading
