The collection of papers is organized by one or more persons, who form the [[editorial team]]. The quality of the papers is typically ensured by having external people read the papers before they are accepted in the proceedings. This process is called [[reviewing]]. Depending on the level of the conference, this process including making revisions can take up to a year. The editors decide about the composition of the proceedings, the order of the papers, and produce the preface and possibly other pieces of text. Although most changes in papers occur on basis on consensus between editors and authors, editors can also single-handedly make changes in papers.
