NeurIPS Camera-Ready
Use this skill only after acceptance. Camera-ready work is not just formatting: it is where anonymous
review artifacts become public scientific records.
Official items to reopen
- Current camera-ready instructions in OpenReview and the yearly NeurIPS handbook.
- Final template and style file.
- Final page, file-size, checklist, appendix, and upload rules.
- Proceedings license, author metadata, presenter/registration requirements, and any presentation
or poster instructions.
2026 baseline facts
The 2026 handbook states that accepted papers get one additional content page for camera-ready and
that camera-ready upload happens through the OpenReview paper page by selecting the camera-ready
version. It also says the final PDF combines paper pages, references, text appendices, and the
paper checklist. Treat these as 2026 facts, not permanent rules.
Camera-ready workflow
- Resolve reviewer and AC issues that are allowed in camera-ready without changing the accepted
contribution beyond recognition.
- De-anonymize authors, acknowledgments, repositories, datasets, model cards, code comments, and
supplementary artifacts.
- Update the checklist so every answer reflects the final paper and public artifacts.
- Replace anonymous review links with stable public links, preferably with archived code and
persistent dataset identifiers where appropriate.
- Verify that all figures, tables, citations, appendices, and artifact instructions match the
final claims.
- Run a final integrity pass for hallucinated citations, broken links, hidden author metadata, and
accidental private data.
