Which editorial decision frustrates authors most: desk rejection, major revisions, minor revisions, or provisional acceptance? Each one shapes authors' experience differently. Which decision do you find hardest to navigate, and why?

Pro-tip for ERCs

Don't resubmit a paper to a different journal where a referee has asked for extensive changes.

Chances are you'll get the same referee who's not going to be pleased!

The AI in peer review debate isn’t just about replacement.

Automation asks what AI can do INTEAD OF reviewers. Augmentation asks what reviewers can do better WITH AI support.

That balance is worth discussing. What do you think?

#PeerReview #AIinResearch

I also like the ethos and maybe #PeerReview in general could learn from this?

1. Codecheckers record but don’t investigate or fix
2. Communication between humans is key
3. Credit is given to codecheckers
4. Computational workflows must be auditable
5. Open by default and transitional by disposition

F1000Research Article: CODECHECK: an Open Science initiative for the independent execution of computations underlying research articles during peer review to improve reproducibility. Read the latest article version by Daniel Nüst, Stephen J. Eglen, at F1000Research.

Interesting pointer from a #JEDI thread offering a description of a process to integrate evaluation of computational reproducibility into #PeerReview:

If they're gonna laugh at my expense I better get content out of it. At least the peer review is done.

Was asked to do review for @springernature.com. The email & the reviewer links didn't have way to contact editorial assistant or AE and "contact us" link was broken. So I submitted an empty review with my question as a confidential feedback to editor. What else am I to do?

Major conference catches illicit AI use — and rejects hundreds of papers The papers’ watermarks allowed organizers to detect use of large language models in peer review.

ICML embedded hidden watermarks in papers to catch AI-generated reviews. 506 reviewers flagged, 497 papers rejected under their reciprocal review policy. Only catches careless use, but this type of AI policy is refreshing.

I genuinely believe the structural solution to the paper crisis affecting #PeerReview is a reimagining of what finished & published science looks like. In the diluted system we have now, peer review cannot systematically perform to task. We need a system that doesn't require it, but can still use it
