Manuscript Checker for Turkish Researchers
Turkish researchers publish heavily in Q3/Q4 journals, but YOK promotion requirements increasingly demand Q1/Q2 international publications. CheckMyManuscript helps Turkish researchers meet the standards of high-impact journals.

Why Turkish researchers face the Q3-to-Q1 challenge
Turkey produces approximately 50,000 scientific papers annually (16th globally) and ranks 34th in citation impact, a significant quality-quantity gap. YOK (Council of Higher Education) requires faculty to publish in Scopus/Web of Science-indexed journals for academic promotion, driving volume. However, a large proportion of Turkish publications appear in Q3/Q4 journals rather than high-impact Q1/Q2 outlets. Turkish-influenced English patterns, SOV word order, article omission (Turkish has no articles), agglutinative morphology creating preposition confusion, contribute to desk rejection at top international journals. TUBITAK grant evaluations also weight high-impact publications.
How CheckMyManuscript helps Turkish researchers
