Authorship can be changed only before a manuscript is accepted for publication. The corresponding author must send to the Editor a request to add or remove an author or to rearrange the author names, which must include:
1. the reason the name should be added or removed, or the author names rearranged and
2. written confirmation (email, letter) from all authors (including the author being added or removed) that they agree with the addition, removal, or rearrangement.
If a request is incomplete, the manuscript will be suspended until authorship has been agreed upon.
