Plagiarism cannot be considered an error by those submitting an article for review, but rather a crime in which authorship recognition has intentionally been concealed and the intellectual effort of others is appropriated for personal gain.

This program is used upon receiving articles and before any submission for evaluation.
11. Guarantee of Publication to External Persons from Our Association
Entretextos is committed to open publications and calls that reach the largest number of people. For the same reason, and to avoid endogamous material, publication is guaranteed to individuals external to our publishing entity, establishing that those who participate in Entretextos' various committees cannot publish in it, except in justified circumstances.

The same author may not publish more than once per issue and must wait for two issues before publishing again; this applies to any type of authorship, whether as the main author, secondary, etc.
13. About Special Editions and Other Contents Commissioned to Guest Editors
Following the issues addressed by COPE in the discussion document "Best practices for guest edited collections" (https://publicationethics.org/sites/default/files/article-collections-best-practice.pdf) of May 2023 and the new criterion from DOAJ of November of the same year (https://doaj.org/apply/guide/), this journal establishes that all contents derived from special editions or commissioned contents must comply with all acceptance criteria required for regular articles. It is also established that peer reviews are the exclusive responsibility of the journal's team, who will use external peer reviewers to carry them out. Special editions or invited contents will be conducted avoiding any conflict of interest. Guest editors may publish only one article within the invited content, and this article will undergo peer review like any regular article. This criterion will also be reflected in the editorial ethics of this journal.
