Bring the following with you to the IL@25 conference Registration desk:
 

A diskette with your paper in a Word file on it. File name? Your surname. Formatting instructions? See below.
 

Two (2) paper copies of your paper. 
 

(Bring additional paper copies to read and, if you want, to distribute.)
 

Format your Paper or Commentary as follows (NO EXCEPTIONS):

Please format the diskette version of your paper in Word as set out below, and save it to a DOS-formatted 3 1/3" floppy. (If you use WordPerfect, save it in Word format; if you use a Mac, you must get the Mac diskette converted to a DOS diskette.)
 

Paper title and your affiliation. 

A New Theory of Fallacy
Ralph H. Blair
Department of Philosophy
University of Windsor

The body of the paper, as follows:
 
SINGLE-spaced throughout.
 

LEFT margin justification ONLY.
 

Do NOT press "Enter" at the end of each line-use the "text-wrap" feature of your word processing program. Press "Enter" ONLY at the end of each paragraph.
 

At the start of a paragraph NEVER USE THE SPACE BAR TO INDENT. Instead, use ONE TAB.
 

12 point type-size, Times Roman font. NO other type size or font in the paper, anywhere.
 

PLEASE keep notes to an absolute minimum. (Notes are a huge nuisance when formatting the Proceedings, and so an added cost burden to our slender resources.) Endnotes ONLY; NO footnotes.
 

All source citations MUST be in the body of the text [Within parentheses: author’s or authors’ surname(s), year of publication, comma, page number if applicable. Examples: "Woods (1998, 34) argues that . . . "; "Others have made this point (van Eemeren 1992; Walton 1994, 1996a)."]. Do NOT use endnotes for citation purposes. 
 

Left-indent block quotes. Do NOT double-indent block quotes.
 

Keep graphics to a minimum, and please, NO GRAPHICS THAT DO NOT REPRODUCE IN WORD.
 

References (please just type the word as you see it at the left, NOT all caps).
 

List your references, alphabetically in the order of the first letter of the author’s (or first author’s) surname.[Note: “Frans H. van Eemeren” is entered as “Eemeren, Frans H. van” and “Simone de Beauvoir” is entered as “Beauvoir, Simone de.”] Please use the IL@25 Proceedings References Style Conventions (q.v.). Do NOT put a blank line between each reference. Do NOT use hanging indents.
