jop-workflow

separate

Use as the entry point for any The Journal of Politics (JOP) manuscript. Routes to the right JOP sub-skill based on where you are in the lifecycle and whether a Research Article (<= 35 pages) or a Short Article (<= 10 pages) fits. JOP counts pages, not words, and makes acceptance contingent on replicability. It dispatches; it does not draft content.

When to use

• Starting a new JOP paper
• Deciding between Research Article and Short Article
• Routing mid-project to the next applicable skill
• Handling decision letters and rebuttals
• Triage by manuscript symptoms
• Checking sibling venue fit
• Executing a review pass with gates
• Returning a claim/evidence/risk ledger

When not to use

• Drafting content
• Planning by word count
• Padding a Short Article toward 35 pages
• Leaving the replication package until acceptance
• Dumping the whole paper into the Online Appendix
