Social Science Paper Citation Editing

I have completed a social-sciences research paper and now need a fresh pair of eyes to make sure every citation, reference list entry, heading, and figure follows the required journal style perfectly. The core arguments and language are settled, so this engagement is all about meticulous formatting and citation accuracy rather than rewriting for content or tone.

The manuscript sits at around journal-article length and is already written in English. I will supply the current Word file plus the target style guide (e.g., APA 7th or the journal’s bespoke template) as soon as we start. I’m expecting two files back: one with tracked changes that highlights every adjustment you make, and one clean, submission-ready copy.

If you have a strong track record in academic editing—especially for social-science journals—and are comfortable wrangling reference managers (Zotero, EndNote, Mendeley) or Word’s built-in citation tools, I’d love to collaborate. Turnaround within a few days would be ideal, but I’m happy to agree on a realistic timeline once you’ve skimmed the manuscript.
