What ACL Related Work does

ACL Related Work helps position an ACL submission against recent NLP literature and check citation hygiene. Use it to handle Anthology-versus-arXiv citations, concurrent preprints, self-citation, and resubmission overlap.

ACL Related Work is cataloged under Writing on DirSkills. ACL Related Work comes from a repository tagged academic-research, academic-writing, agent-skills, ai-agents and anthropic.

Documentation

README

Excerpt

Use this to audit positioning and citation hygiene. NLP moves fast enough that related-work sections age between ARR cycles; the section must prove the authors know the field as of this cycle, not as of the project's start.

The Anthology-first rule

When a paper exists in the ACL Anthology (or another archival venue), cite that version, not its arXiv preprint — Anthology entries are the community's citation of record and carry stable BibTeX.
The Anthology is fully open access (post-2016 materials under CC BY 4.0), so "couldn't access the published version" is never a defense here.
For findings-tier work, cite it as Findings of ACL/EMNLP — it is archival and reviewers treat miscrediting it as sloppiness.

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
