Authors are responsible for ensuring that their manuscripts conform to the Insight Turkey style. The Editors will not undertake retyping of manuscripts before publication. Authors whose first language is not English should have their article read and corrected by a competent English linguist.
Particular attention is drawn to the following points:
Spelling
American spelling should be used throughout. Numbers from one to ten should be spelled out, other numbers should be given as numerals. Dates should be in the form April 8, 1999; 1996-99; the 1980s. Use percent rather than %.
Names
Use original spelling in languages that use Latin alphabet. For transliteration of all other languages (such as Russian, Chinese, Arabic, Persian, etc) into English, please seek advice from the Editors.
Sub-headings
Should be italic and in title case. Sub-sub-headings should be title case and underlined.
Endnotes
The number of notes should be kept to a minimum. They should be numbered consecutively throughout the article, using a raised numeral in the text, to correspond to a list of notes placed at the end.
In the list of notes, consistency is most important in references to books, articles and manuscript sources; note that initial capitals are used for all nouns and important adjectives in titles. Some examples are given below. All of the information shown must be included.

In endnotes 'ibid.' should be used where possible, but it should not be used where the previous note contains more than one source.
Book reviews
Reviews should be preceded by full publication information, in the following form:
Book Title (and translation if necessary) by First name, Last Name, (Place of Publication: Publisher, Year), # of pages, price. The reviewer's name and affiliation should appear at the end.
Images and figures
If figures or images are to be included, they should be at least 300 dpi (high-resolution) in order to be printed clearly in the journal. All images must be in black and white. Please supply the data you used to generate any figures, preferably as Excel worksheets. Do not send whole data sets, only the information required to generate the figures.
