▌
Jf Writing Style · brycewang-stanford
Use when polishing the prose of a The Journal of Finance (JF) manuscript for accessible, general-interest exposition that reaches the broad AFA flagship readership. Tightens the introduction so question, finding, and economic magnitude land on page one, trims hedging, and offloads notation to the Internet Appendix; it does not change results or run analyses.

▌
Jf Identification · brycewang-stanford

▌
Jf Tables Figures · brycewang-stanford
Use when finalizing tables and figures for a The Journal of Finance (JF) manuscript for the AFA flagship.

▌
Jf Topic Selection · brycewang-stanford
Use when judging whether a research question is general-interest and economically significant enough for The Journal of Finance (JF), and when sharpening the framing. Tests fit and contribution; it does not design the empirics.

▌
Jf Empirical Design · brycewang-stanford

▌
Jf Referee Strategy · brycewang-stanford

1k repo stars
▌
Jf Internet Appendix · brycewang-stanford
Use when deciding what belongs in the Internet Appendix vs. the main text of a The Journal of Finance (JF) manuscript. Allocates content and structures the appendix per JF's actual policy; it does not generate the results.

1k repo stars
▌
Jf Literature Positioning · brycewang-stanford
Use when the introduction and related-work sections of a The Journal of Finance (JF) manuscript fail to state a crisp marginal contribution against the finance literature. Positions the paper; it does not survey it.
