In October 2020, as a member of the EASE Council, I launched the campaign Help scientists save time (1, 2). It aimed to minimize editorial requirements for initial manuscript submission. This can be crucial for faster progress in scientific research, because many manuscripts are rejected and often must be reformatted before submission to another journal. That is why we promote simplification of the requirements and placing the EASE Quick-Check Table at the beginning of instructions for authors in each journal.
Key words: European Association of Science Editors (EASE), Scientific Communication, Scientific research, Science editing, Science publishing.
