From the SKILL.md

# Submission Preflight (conbio-submission) The last check before pressing submit on **Wiley ScholarOne Manuscript Central** (`mc.manuscriptcentral.com/cobi`). *Conservation Biology* is **double-blind**, so the single most common avoidable failure is an under-anonymized manuscript. Check upload-week specifics on the official page before relying on them (per-type caps can change — see `resources/official-source-map.md`). ## When to trigger - "Submitting tomorrow" — last pass before upload - Unsure which files/metadata ScholarOne expects - Confirming the chosen article type's caps are met and the manuscript is properly anonymized ## Process facts - **Owner / publisher:** Society for Conservation Biology (SCB) / Wiley. - **Portal:** **Wiley ScholarOne Manuscript Central** (`mc.manuscriptcentral.com/cobi`). - **Review model:** **double-blind** — anonymize the manuscript and author identities; provide a separate title page. - **Article types & word limits:** Contributed Papers 7,000 in current Wiley listings; use the live Instructions for Authors page for the final caps on Research Notes, Reviews, Essays, Conservation Practice and Policy, Comments, Diversity, Letters, and any Registered

About this skill
What does the conbio-submission skill do?

Use when running the final pre-submission preflight for Conservation Biology via Wiley's ScholarOne Manuscript Central — article-type selection, double-blind preparation, word/abstract caps, Style Guide formatting, data-availability statement, and declarations. Final checks; it does not draft content.

How do I install it?

Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill conbio-submission --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.

Where does this skill come from?

From brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills, a repository with 909 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.

Is a popular skill a good skill?

Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
