The service flow can be seen on this page. Editors may assign Reviewers from SiLeT peer reviewers, suggestions of Authors, other researchers, and/or other SiLeT Editorial Members. Admission of the manuscript depends on the novelty of the research, the importance of the article, the truth of the content, the degree of originality, clarity of description, and conformity with the purpose of the journal.

Manuscripts can be accepted without revisions, minor revisions, large revisions, or even rejected. The final decision on acceptance of the manuscript must be made by the Editorial Board in accordance with the reviewers' critical comments.
