FAccT Camera Ready
Use this after acceptance. FAccT papers are archival ACM proceedings (unless you chose
non-archival), so the camera-ready is an ACM production step. Reopen the current camera-ready
instructions, the decision email, and the rights/Open-Access pages before advising — and note the
two-round calendar: Round-1 accepts and Revise-and-resubmit accepts have different
camera-ready deadlines (FAccT 2026: 24 April and 11 May respectively).
Camera-ready audit
- De-anonymize completely and add the withheld endmatter: restore the author block,
affiliations, and now add the Positionality, Acknowledgements, Author Contributions,
and Competing Interests statements that mutual anonymity required you to hold back. The
Positionality statement in particular exists only from this point on.
- Switch to the proceedings format: move from the anonymous
review build to the acmart
sigconf camera-ready, within the current page budget (Revised/accepted papers may use 15
content pages; confirm).
- Keep the required Generative AI Usage Statement accurate for the final manuscript.
- Complete ACM metadata: title/abstract, author order, ORCIDs, ACM CCS concepts and
keywords, and the DOI-bearing citation once assigned.
- Integrate reviewer/AC-required changes faithfully — without strengthening claims beyond what
was evaluated in the Revise round.
- Finalize accountability documentation: replace anonymized artifact links with permanent,
licensed ones, and align the datasheet / model card / impact assessment with the released
version and the paper's tables.
- Confirm presentation: at least one author presents in person (archival or non-archival).

ACM production checks
[Template] acmart sigconf, current revision; no manual margin/font edits
[Metadata] title, abstract, authors+ORCID, CCS concepts, keywords entered and matching the PDF
[Rights] ACM e-rights form completed; correct rights/Open-Access statement on the first page
[Open Access] since 1 Jan 2026 ACM proceedings are 100% OA — confirm ACM Open coverage or the APC
path (fee-waiver policy 待核实) well before the deadline, not at the last minute
[Endmatter] Generative AI Usage kept; Positionality/Acks/Contributions added; ethics/adverse-impacts final
[References] complete, consistent; DOIs where available (references are unlimited)
[Links] every artifact / data-availability link resolves from a logged-out browser
Worked example: integrating a Revise-round fix
The Area Chair required adding disaggregation by an intersectional subgroup and correcting a
doctrinal framing. Camera-ready move: place the new subgroup table in the results with its
uncertainty and the utility trade-off, fix the legal framing and cite the doctrine to its real
origin, add the now-permitted Positionality statement reflecting on the authors' standpoint, and
point the data link at the public, licensed archive with a finalized datasheet — without expanding
the harm claim the reviewers accepted.
Hedged logistics
- The two camera-ready dates, page allowances, metadata fields, rights mechanics, and the ACM Open /
APC specifics change each cycle and differ by round; confirm against the decision email and current
instructions rather than a prior year. APC/fee-waiver details are 待核实.
