Verified Reviews - PLoS One

Soon, on the 2nd, the decision letter was received, and on the 3rd, an email with technical requirements was received, which didn't require any modifications, mainly author confirmation. We didn't pay attention to the email, and on the 21st, the journal sent an email saying that it had been more than 10 days and asked why we hadn't processed it yet. It was processed on the 22nd and officially accepted on the 25th. You can check the top of the submission system for a task that needs to be completed.

Hello! May I ask if the pre-acceptance notification refers to the decision letter? (It was mentioned that the requirements have been met, and the acceptance notification will be issued after meeting the technical requirements). I would like to know what other steps are there between this email and the formal acceptance notification? It has been a month since I submitted my application, and I have undergone three FARs. However, the status of my article is still "decision in process".

Received confirmation email from the corresponding author on March 3, requesting a response by March 6. However, I did not notice the email until the 22nd, and only completed the revision on the 25th. Officially accepted on the 25th.

The text translates to: "Submitted in February, under review for about a month, and still no news until now."

I submitted my application in early January, and it is still under review. I don't know when I will receive feedback.

My submission at the end of December 2021 is still under review and no feedback or revision suggestions have been given. I wonder what the reason is.

There is no specific time frame for receiving the official employment notice after acceptance. First, you need to revise the basic details of the article, including uploading necessary attachments, checking images, and verifying the content. After the publishing editor deems it meets the publication requirements, you will receive the official employment notice which includes an invoice, payment information, and the official publication date of the paper.

Doesn't it embarrass you to be in public?
Does your behavior affect my posting timeline?

How long does it take to receive the official employment notice after confirming acceptance?

Scammer, get out!

Can I ask what does it mean when a submission shows "Under Review" for about 2 months and then directly changes to "with editor"? Has anyone encountered this situation before?
贵刊真慢 2022-03-01

Submitted in early December 2021, revised in mid-February 2022, and accepted for publication by the end of February 2022. Received minor revisions from two reviewers, who provided professional feedback that greatly helped improve the logical accuracy of the paper. After addressing the revisions from the first reviewer, it was accepted. The editor indeed invited reviewers who are familiar with the author's research direction, and it seems that the journal is not as mediocre as advertised.
I would like to kindly ask enthusiastic friends to help answer how long it takes for a paper to be indexed in the Web of Science Core Collection after being published online.

Can I add you as a friend? I would like to consult about submitting something.

End of April - Submission
End of May - Major revisions based on the comments from three reviewers, with over 30 suggestions. Revised version submitted in early July.
Early August - Minor revisions based on the comments from two additional reviewers. No requirement for additional experiments. All five reviewers mentioned language issues but did not request language editing or a report from an institution. The editor only asked for grammar correction using software. The author found a foreign colleague to help with language editing. Revised version submitted in early September.
Early November - Accepted.
Each round of review was generally completed within one month.

Do I need a cover letter, or can I just submit it directly?

Not being on the warning list of the Chinese Academy of Sciences is enough, haha. Submitted on December 16th; received first-round comments on January 17th; accepted after modifications and launched on February 16th; the whole process took exactly two months!

I submitted an article in July 2021, and it has been one month since it underwent revisions, but I still haven't received any news. Another article was submitted on October 15th and is currently in the "editor invited" stage.

It has been almost twenty days since my paper was submitted and it is showing as "editor invited". I would like to know how long this status is expected to last and whether I should send an email to inquire about it.
HeDy 2022-01-31
How long does the "editor invited" status last? It has been nearly ten days and it hasn't changed yet.

Have you received the payment notice now? I also received the job offer notice in mid-January, but I haven't received the payment notice yet.

Regarding this journal, there are various evaluations, but I will not make too many comments here. To meet the graduation requirements, you can give it a try. I am currently a doctoral student majoring in social sciences. I submitted the paper at the end of July 2021. It was initially listed as "editor invited" and then changed to "under review" at the end of September. In mid-November, I received comments from two external reviewers, requiring major revisions and giving me one and a half months to make the changes. I submitted the revised manuscript in early December. In mid-January 2022, I received a pre-acceptance email, followed by formatting changes, and a week later, I received the official acceptance notice. Overall, I feel that the journal has a fairly efficient manuscript processing system, and the communication with the editor has been very good.

The process takes five months and involves back and forth format reviews, which can be a bit slow. The journal has many requirements.

Just submitted, don't know the result yet, awards and graduation required.

Excuse me, do you have any requirements for submitting the source data?

Because I urgently needed to submit an article, I submitted one. Before submitting, I heard rumors that as long as you pay, you can get accepted. However, during the actual submission process, I found that the reviewers were quite professional. One of them had a deep impression on the issue of our formula design. We were working on algorithm improvements, and one of the formulas we designed was complex and lengthy. Inside the formula, we missed a negative sign, and the reviewers were able to identify that this missing negative sign caused an issue with the algorithm's logic. Our article went through two rounds of revisions with two reviewers, one having 6 questions and the other having 11 questions. Based on my own submission experience, I feel that it is not as easy as the rumors suggest.

Hello, may I ask which field of research you specialize in? I also study forestry and would like to consult you about some questions regarding submitting to this journal.
科研大叔 2021-11-16
No, I also accept pure artificial intelligence and interdisciplinary artificial intelligence. What I am studying is artificial intelligence theory.
