Context / Research Domain

Research Software Dissemination / Software Peer Review

Problem

This is perhaps a rather mundane issue, and maybe too small a project for a hack day, but it’s an issue with direct relevance to the SSI, so I thought I’d propose it nonetheless:

Let’s make some better manuscript templates for the Journal of Open Research Software

As a reviewer I find the template for software papers provided by JORS irksome. While they are well structured for the purpose of the final product they do not feature pagination or line numbering which makes reviewing cumbersome.

Solution

Update the tex/docx/odt templates to enforce pagination and line numbering.
