| yesterday | comment | added | Dan Romik | ... Ever since that incident I always write my papers with the mindset that my goal is to leave the reviewer with nothing to say except "This is a great paper!" | |
| yesterday | comment | added | Dan Romik | Re: "If a paper is really too shallow for even 300 words, I'd likely recommend the editor reject": some of the most flattering reviews I received were very short. On one paper (which I worked extremely hard to polish prior to submission) the review was one line long - something like "This is an excellent paper with very interesting results on [topic]. It is very well written. I have no comments for improvements." This was in a top journal, and needless to say I was very pleased that my hard work in polishing the paper had paid off. | |
