1. Strict adherence to the Author Guidelines: authors are held entirely responsible for observing the Author Guidelines in the least detail. That is, any violation of the Author Guidelines results into a desk rejection of submissions (this is why the rejection rate of the journal exceeds 90%). No matter how small the authors consider an error concerning a simple comma, placed where the Guidelines forbid it, e.g., between the last name and initials of authors, or missing or being replaced by another punctuation sign, e.g., after the article title, it will result into a desk rejection. The rules include using the template at https://uac.incd.ro/Index/Model.doc without altering it; the template contains the Author Guidelines. The Author Guidelines are found in more or less detail at https://uac.incd.ro/EN/Index/instr.htm (general presentation), https://uac.incd.ro/Index/UAC_EN.pdf (most common mistakes), and https://uac.incd.ro/Index/Editing_EN.doc (detailed Guidelines), and any violation (including the violation of any of the 50 detailed guidelines only once) results into a desk rejection. 2. Due to the fact that our journal is indexed in important international databases, including Scopus, we explicitly require authors "articles that are well-grounded in the existing literature, showing an up-to-date knowledge of worldwide developments. The reference list must be primarily based on published materials (with ISBN or ISSN) and focused on the mainstream international literature. We recommend authors to limit to a necessary core the list of unpublished materials, especially of those that are not undergoing peer review (Internet websites, unpublished brochures etc.)" Moreover, we do not accept any auto-citation of our journal; a single reference pointing to our journal results into an immediate desk rejection. In more details, the reference list should have at least 25 titles, out of which at least 23 should be published materials (journal articles, books, book chapters, published conference proceedings) written in English, and 20 should be articles published in the mainstream journals. This is an elimination criterion for publication, meaning that if the criterion is not met, the submission is desk rejected. If the reference list is longer, the share of published materials should be similar - at last 90% published materials and 80% articles from the mainstream journals, published in English. 3. Scope of the journal: the journal publishes only papers related to the different fields of urban and territorial planning, architecture, and civil engineering. Papers from other fields must show a clear connection to urban/territorial planning, architecture, and civil engineering, in order to be accepted in the peer review process. 4. If the reviewers ask for changes, the authors must provide along with their revised manuscript an anonymous letter describing how they addressed each comment received. Failure to provide the letter, providing the letter in a different file format, or disclosing the identity of authors may result into a rejection. 5. The journal enforces the use of specific file formats in the electronic communication. The use of other formats may result into a rejection during the peer review process or immediate desk rejection in the first place. 6. Only the manuscript must be submitted in the first place. Submitting the pledge form before the manuscript is accepted, or submitting other documents not needed, such as a cover letter, will delay processing the submission and may result into a desk rejection.

DOCX and PDF files are not accepted, and determine the desk rejection of submissions. 2.
