Abstract

In the present article, we first intend to demonstrate, by showing examples taken from an academic journal on Linguistics, that errors and errata are equally essential in correction of academic texts. In addition, the aim of our work is to show that both criteria and procedures towards normalization – this, defined as a set of decisions and procedures which tend to unify the style of a writing in all its levels – are the basis on which a group of scientific articles belonging to different authors, or else a body of work written by the same author, dealing with different topics or belonging to several academic stages, may become a periodical publication or a book.
