Contributing journal formats?

[coatless]

Perhaps I missed it, but how can we submit an article template for quarto-journals?

That is, if I have a separate repository based on the quarto-journals/article-format-template repo, how I can I have it listed under the main quarto-journals organization?

On the same page, is there a plan for migrating {rticles} templates to the quarto-journals format? Can/should people who contributed to {rticles} help migrating the templates to the new platform?

I would like to contribute for creating a quarto template for Springer-Nature journals. I have already forked the template and I am just starting to work on it. Any reccomendations are more than welcome, as I am not myself any expert on GitHub or Quarto. Cheers!

I have an Arxiv template from my Rmarkdown days that I would like to use in Quarto, would be cool to know if there's already work underway to support Arxiv format here in quarto-journals.

I think this has been done already

We're still thinking about the best way to manage this organization and how to new template should be contributed. We plan to add more template ourselves in this organization, mainly based on what is used in rticles package. We still want to consider contribution that meets the standard and contributing guide (still need to be settled down). It is mainly maintenance consideration for us, and warranty to the users getting a template from quarto-journals.

Current way of following what has already been done are:

• Awesome Quarto page (https://github.com/mcanouil/awesome-quarto#journals)
• Quarto template tag on Github: https://github.com/topics/quarto-template
• Quarto extension tag on Github: https://github.com/topics/quarto-extension

Glad I found this thread - I've just added quarto-template and quarto-extension tags to mine for IOP journals.

@vsouza83 I've also got a SN one in development: where did you get to with yours?

@vsouza83 @sebdunnett @christopherkenny Here are some brief notes on Quarto Springer or Nature templates that I could find. Please add or correct comments (and I apologize if some of my comments are incorrect/irrelevant).

All are based on sn-jnl.cls v0.1 2019/11/18 (but the userguide.pdf says Version 2.1, April 2023)

• https://github.com/christopherkenny/nature: based on https://www.springernature.com/gp/authors/campaigns/latex-author-support/see-where-our-services-will-take-you/18782940. Includes sample PDF. No examples of ORCID, colored links, colored text. README documents the template options
• https://github.com/vsouza83/springer-nature. Problems in packaging, eg sn-article.tex is in partials/. Instruction quarto use template quarto-journals/springer-nature uses wrong github repo (not yet merged to quarto-journals). "layout and style STILL ORIGINAL ELSEVIER FROM THIS POINT ON", eg mentions "doubleblind" but such option is not supported.
• https://github.com/sebdunnett/quarto-sn: based on sn-jnl.cls v0.1 2019/11/18. Supports ORCID, colored links, colored text. Lua Filters replace_backmatter, latex-environment, remove_rule_parentheses. Sample PDF not included. README not updated from "Article Format Template".

I cannot find a template for Springer LNCS llncs.cls, eg as per here

• https://www.iasei.org/dmbd2023/files/latex_template.zip
• https://resource-cms.springernature.com/springer-cms/rest/v1/content/19238648/data/v6
• https://www.overleaf.com/latex/templates/springer-lecture-notes-in-computer-science/kzwwpvhwnvfj

Unless someone can point me to such a template, I'll try to make one following @christopherkenny's example. Cheers!
