Submissions & Format

Three kinds of papers can be submitted:

Long papers are most appropriate for presenting substantial research results 
and must not exceed eight (8) pages of content, plus unlimited pages of ethical 
considerations, supplementary material statements, and references. The 
supplementary material statement provides detailed descriptions to support the 
reproduction of the results presented in the paper (see below for details). The 
final versions of long papers will be given one additional page of content (up 
to 9 pages) so that reviewers' comments can be taken into account.

Short papers are more appropriate for presenting an ongoing research effort and 
must not exceed four (4) pages, plus unlimited pages of ethical considerations, 
supplementary material statements, and references. The final versions of short 
papers will be given one additional page of content (up to 5 pages) so that 
reviewers' comments can be taken into account.

Demo papers should be no more than two (2) pages, including references, and 
should describe implemented systems relevant to the NLG community. It also 
should include a link to a short screencast of the working software. In 
addition, authors of demo papers must be willing to present a demo of their 
system during INLG 2025.

Submissions should follow ACL Author Guidelines 
(https://www.aclweb.org/adminwiki/index.php?title=ACL_Author_Guidelines) and 
policies for submission, review and citation, and be anonymised for double 
blind reviewing. Please use ACL 2023 style files; LaTeX style files and 
Microsoft Word templates are available at 
https://acl-org.github.io/ACLPUB/formatting.html

Authors must honor the ethical code set out in the ACL Code of Ethics 
(https://www.aclweb.org/portal/content/acl-code-ethics). If your work raises 
any ethical issues, you should include an explicit discussion of those issues. 
This will also be taken into account in the review process. You may find the 
following checklist of use: https://aclrollingreview.org/responsibleNLPresearch/
Authors are strongly encouraged to ensure that their work is reproducible; see, 
e.g., the following reproducibility checklist 
(https://2021.aclweb.org/calls/reproducibility-checklist/). Papers involving 
any kind of experimental results (human judgments, system outputs, etc) should 
incorporate a data availability statement into their paper. Authors are asked 
to indicate whether the data is made publicly available. If the data is not 
made available, authors should provide a brief explanation why. (E.g. because 
the data contains proprietary information.) A statement guide is available on 
the INLG 2025 website: https://inlg2025.github.io/


To submit a long or short paper to INLG 2025, authors can either submit 
directly or commit a paper previously reviewed by ARR via the same paper 
submission site (https://softconf.com/p/inlg2025/). For direct submissions, the 
deadline for submitting papers is July 18, 2025 (NEW), 11:59:59 AOE. If 
committing an ARR paper to INLG, the submission is also made through the INLG 
2025 paper submission site, indicating the link of the paper on OpenReview. The 
deadline for committing an ARR paper to INLG is August 7, 2025, 11:59:59 AOE, 
and the last eligible ARR paper submission deadline for INLG 2025 is May 19, 
2025. It is important to note that when committing an ARR paper to INLG, it 
should be submitted through the INLG 2025 paper submission site, just like a 
direct submission paper, with the only difference being the need to provide the 
OpenReview link to the paper and to provide an optional author response to 
reviews.

Demo papers should be submitted directly through the INLG 2025 paper submission 
site (https://softconf.com/n/inlg2025/) by July 24, 2025, 11:59:59 AOE.

All accepted papers will be published in the INLG 2025 proceedings and included 
in the ACL anthology. A paper accepted for presentation at INLG 2025 must not 
have been presented at any other meeting with publicly available proceedings. 
Dual submission to other conferences is permitted, provided that authors 
clearly indicate this in the submission form. If the paper is accepted at both 
venues, the authors will need to choose which venue to present at, since they 
can not present the same paper twice.

Finally, at least one of the authors of an accepted paper must register to 
attend the conference.

Awards

INLG 2025 will present several awards to recognize outstanding achievements in 
the field. These awards are:

Best Long Paper Award: This award will be given to the best long paper 
submission based on its originality, impact, and contribution to the field of 
NLG.

Best Short Paper Award: This award will be given to the best short paper 
submission based on its originality, impact, and contribution to the field of 
NLG.

Best Demo Paper Award: This award will recognize the best demo paper submitted 
to the conference. This award considers not only the paper's quality but also 
the demonstration given at the conference. The demonstration will play a 
significant role in the judging process.

Best Evaluation Award: This award honors the authors who have demonstrated the 
most comprehensive and insightful analysis in evaluating their results. This 
award aims to highlight papers where the authors have gone the extra mile in 
providing a thorough and detailed analysis of their results, offering a nuanced
