SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

NAACL authors often struggle with strict formatting, submission, and anonymity requirements. This skill provides clear, actionable guidance to format papers using the shared ACL template and comply with NAACL-specific rules.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Template path: NAACL uses the shared acl style files (acl_latex.tex and acl.sty) and a common template with ACL/EMNLP.
  • Modes & Page Limits: Three modes (submission, camera-ready, preprint) and an 8-page main text limit (excluding references/appendix).
  • Submission & Anonymization: Double-blind review, anonymization of self-citations, and guidelines for camera-ready adjustments.
  • NLP Writing Conventions: Typical paper structure, clear sections, references management, and reproducibility expectations.
  • Quick Start: Use this skill to apply NAACL formatting and submission rules to your manuscript.

Quick Start

Frequently Asked Questions about naacl

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I apply NAACL 2026 formatting rules to a LaTeX manuscript?

To apply NAACL 2026 formatting, use the shared acl_latex.tex template and acl.sty style files found in the ccf-latex-templates/NAACL/ directory. This ensures compliance with the 8-page limit and standard citation formatting for your NAACL submission.

What are the LaTeX anonymization requirements for a NAACL double-blind submission?

NAACL double-blind submission requires anonymizing self-citations and removing author identifying information from the LaTeX manuscript. You must use the submission mode in the acl template to ensure all self-references are properly anonymized for the review process.

Does the NAACL LaTeX template share style files with other ACL conferences?

Yes, the NAACL LaTeX template shares common style files with ACL and EMNLP conferences. It uses the shared acl_latex.tex and acl.sty files, meaning you can adapt the same base manuscript for multiple ACL-related submissions with minimal adjustments.

How do I switch my NAACL LaTeX paper from submission to camera-ready mode?

To switch your NAACL LaTeX paper to camera-ready mode, change the document mode setting in the acl_latex template. This applies the camera-ready adjustments required by NAACL, such as adding author names and affiliations, while maintaining the 8-page main text limit excluding references and appendix.

What is the page limit for NAACL papers excluding references and appendix?

The NAACL page limit is 8 pages for the main text, excluding references and appendix. Your LaTeX manuscript must adhere strictly to this 8-page limit for the main body to avoid desk rejection during the NAACL submission process.

What LaTeX template path do I need to set up for NAACL paper submission?

You need to set up the LaTeX template path at ccf-latex-templates/NAACL/ for NAACL paper submission. This directory contains the necessary acl_latex.tex and acl.sty files required to properly format your manuscript according to NAACL 2026 guidelines.
