# Revision (jep-revision)

## When to trigger

- A JEP editor's letter arrived asking for changes (not an anonymous referee report)
- The edits center on accessibility, balance, framing, or length — the JEP levers
- The managing editor returned a heavily marked-up draft
- You need to plan the revision and a concise reply to the editorial team

## How JEP revision differs

JEP review is **editor-driven and hands-on**, so revision is a **conversation with the editors and managing editor**, not a rebuttal to hidden referees. The edits will almost always be about *how the piece communicates* — is it accessible enough, balanced enough, well-framed, and the right length — rather than new identification or robustness. The right posture is **responsive and collaborative**: the editors are protecting the broad-audience mission, and on accessibility calls they are usually right.
