Revista de Morfologia Urbana follows the principles and standards recommended by COPE (Committee on Publication Ethics).

We will not accept manuscripts that fail to properly cite previous work by the authors or others. We expect all previous work that directly influenced the manuscript submitted to our journal to be adequately acknowledged. Submissions that violate this rule will be summarily rejected as soon as the plagiarism is determined. 

If the article was alredy published, it will be retracted. 

Other kinds of mistakes and errata will be analyzed by the editorial team e corrected accordingly. 

In both cases, modifications to articles that have already been published will be registered and documented in Crossmark, according to the following guidelines:

Minor changes include correcting formatting and spelling. There are no substantive changes you would need to alert the reader to, so the Crossmark status is current. If changes don’t affect the crediting or interpretation of the work, the Crossmark status remains as it is. This also applies to article versioning - if the changes between versions of a work don’t reflect major changes in the content of the paper, keep the Crossmark status as current.

Major changes affect the Crossmark status of the work, as Crossmark is geared towards letting readers know about significant changes to the published literature. Substantial changes, such as the retraction of an article due to an error, or a correction to an author’s name, should be reflected in a work’s Crossmark status. It is good practice to publish a notice of correction or retraction (with its own DOI) and not put it behind access control. This allows readers to follow the link in the Crossmark button and find further details about the update. (source: Crossmark)
