Reviewing for WASSA 2017 will be blind: reviewers will not be presented with the identity of paper authors. Authors should avoid writing anything that makes their identity obvious in the text.
Submissions should be original, and in particular should not previously have been formally published.
Accepted papers will be published in the EMNLP WASSA proceedings, with ISBN. The best papers will be chosen for a special issue of an ISI-indexed journal (to be confirmed). Past editions special issues include the Decision Support Systems journal (Elsevier) and Computer Speech and Language journal (Elsevier), Information Processing and Management (Elsevier).
