Reviewer Guideline

BURANA - Journal of Turcology Studies uses a system of blind reviewing. To ensure unbiased evaluation, information such as author, institution, etc. is not included in articles sent to reviewers.

Articles submitted to the journal are first analyzed for compliance with the rules of publication. Articles that conform to the rules of publication are first evaluated by an editor. Articles that have passed the editor's preliminary evaluation are forwarded to the field editors and sent by them to two reviewers who are experts in their fields. For articles that have received a positive conclusion from both reviewers and require corrections, the editors contact the authors according to the conclusions of the reviewers. The authors are asked to make the corrections requested by the reviewers and to resubmit the article within 15 days at the latest.

Articles that received negative feedbacks from both reviewers are reported to the author with the reviewers' reviews attached. In the case of a positive conclusion of one reviewer and a negative conclusion of the other, the opinion of the third reviewer is requested. Articles are accepted/rejected according to the opinion of the third reviewer.

Reviewers are asked to evaluate articles within 30 days. If the 30-day deadline expires, a reminder message is sent and an additional 10-day deadline is given. After this period, another reviewer is assigned to replace the reviewer who has not responded to the evaluation.
