Article Submission Guidelines

 

In order to streamline the submission process and ensure all submissions are print ready for the newspaper, please adhere to the guidelines outlined below. Articles that do not conform to this format cannot be considered. Please also take the time to read the terms and conditions presented.

Article size

Most articles submitted should be between 500 and 550 words, and be accompanied by an evocative photograph or photographs, if possible.

We can only guarantee publication of an article if you advertise with us. Being a free Jewish community newspaper, the only thing that sustains us is advertising. Otherwise, we couldn’t exist.

Those that take a full-page advertisement can submit an article of between 1,000 to 1,100 words, with an evocative photograph or photographs.

Photo requirements:

Maximum 5 photos per article.
Each image to be a separate file.
File format: JPG.
Size: At least 1MB, but no more than 2MB.

Article Q & A

Please ensure the information supplied is accurate, as The Jewish Report will not be liable for factual errors provided by contributors.

Further, please ensure articles have been proofread for spelling and grammatical errors before submitting them.

Articles may be edited for clarity at The Jewish Report’s discretion.

Article selection by The Jewish Report (TJR)

The editor has full discretion as to whether to publish articles submitted. Articles that the editor feels are against the ethos of the TJR will not be published. TJR is supportive of all Jewish community organisations, regardless of their religious or political affiliations.

We believe these organisations form the foundation of a strong, cohesive and dynamic Jewish community. However, due to space constraints, some submissions may not be included.

TJR will select articles based on what the editor regards as their newsworthiness and the extent to which they are aligned with the philosophy of the paper.

TJR will also prioritise regular advertisers and will guarantee publication of these advertisers’ articles.
