wber-submission
Use when running the final pre-submission preflight for The World Bank Economic Review (WBER) via the ScholarOne ManuscriptCentral portal — the 40-page total cap, single-anonymized title page, abstract/JEL, data availability statement with DOI, and house format. Final checks; it does not draft content.

Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Submission Preflight (wber-submission) ## When to trigger - "Submitting tomorrow" — last check before pressing submit on ManuscriptCentral - Unsure which files and format rules the WBER portal expects - Confirming the 40-page cap, single-anonymized title page, and data availability statement are in order - Deciding between the full-length and short-format track ## Process facts (检索于 2026-06；以官网为准) - WBER is published by **Oxford University Press for the World Bank**; submission is through the **ScholarOne ManuscriptCentral** portal (`mc.manuscriptcentral.com/wber`), as **PDF**. - **Editors (verified 2026-06-22): Eric Edmonds and Nina Pavcnik (both Dartmouth College)**, with co-editors including Leora Klapper, David McKenzie, Emanuela Galasso, Norman Loayza, and Roy van der Weide. Re-verify on the OUP editorial-board page before naming an editor. - **Length cap:** standard submissions **must not exceed 40 pages total**, at 12-point font, double-spaced, Times New Roman (or similar), one-inch margins — and the 40 pages **include all content subject to review**: tables, figures, references, footnotes, and appendices. (Confirm the current limit on the OUP author guidelines.) - **Revie

Final checks; it does not draft content.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add brycewang-stanford/Awesome-Journal-Skills --skill wber-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.
