About This Role

Cases may be related to articles at any stage of the publication process, from submission through publication, or pertain to work that is already published. Multiple journals and/or articles, and authors/editors/reviewers may be involved. In all cases, Wiley’s own ethical best practice guidelines are followed as are those of the Committee for Publishing Ethics (COPE); in complex cases, consultation with COPE may be sought.
