Standards and audits for writing academic papers, especially ML/NLP submissions to NeurIPS, ICML, ICLR, ACL, EMNLP, NAACL. Covers the author's house prose rules (zero em dashes, zero fluff, every sentence earns its place), verification of hallucinated claims and hallucinated or malformed bibliography entries, the ACL policy on AI writing assistance and what must be disclosed, and best practices for paper structure, experiments, reproducibility checklists, and rebuttals. Use this skill whenever the user is drafting, editing, polishing, restructuring, or reviewing a paper, abstract, intro, related work, rebuttal, or camera-ready; whenever they ask to "clean up" or "tighten" academic writing; whenever citations or a .bib file need checking; and whenever they ask what has to be disclosed about AI assistance. Reach for it even when the user only says "make this section better", "check my references", or "is this ready to submit".

# Research paper integrity

This skill is the index. Each area below lives in its own reference file so you only
load what the current task needs. Read the file before acting on that area, not after,
because these rules change what you write rather than how you check it afterwards.

## What lives where

| Area | File | Read it when |
|---|---|---|
| Prose rules: no em dashes, no fluff, necessity test | `references/writing-style.md` | Writing or editing any prose the user will submit |
| Hallucination audit: unsupported claims, fake or wrong citations, bib hygiene | `references/hallucination-audit.md` | Any draft has claims or references that were not hand-verified |
| AI assistance disclosure (ACL 2023 policy and its logic) | `references/ai-writing-policy.md` | The user asks what to disclose, fills a responsible-NLP checklist, or used a model for text, ideas, or code |
| Conference craft: structure, experiments, figures, rebuttals, checklists | `references/conference-writing.md` | Planning a paper, restructuring sections, prepping a submission or rebuttal |
