Summary/Abstract: The paper discusses three innovative suggestions encouraging young philological researchers to publish their scientific contributions in humanities journals indexed in global databases. The first suggestion is related to the revival of the linguistic genre of the language note, which was widely used in scientific journals and mass media until 2000. This genre has a rich history in the Bulgarian scholarship and is closely associated with the language policy and the clarification of important linguistic issues in the form of short but meaningful texts that comment mainly on deviations from literary language norms or stylistic deficiencies in the media and the speech of public speakers. The second suggestion envisages a series of scientific conversations related to language and literature with prominent Bulgarian and foreign researchers. The recorded audio files will be an integral part of online platforms of contemporary publications. This will enable the preservation of interesting linguistic ideas and the 'voice' of established scholars for future reference. The third idea developed in this publication is to assign young researchers to develop speech portraits of public speakers and conduct "interviews" with them on topics related to current issues of the linguistic situation. In this way, the distance between academic linguists and public experts will be bridged. These ideas are presented as an opportunity to broaden the audience and enrich philological journals with columns in which secondary school teachers and their students can publish their observations.
