I later submitted to OLEN and it is now under review. I have followed up twice, but the editor may have gotten annoyed and rejected me.

浑水摸鱼打老虎 2022-10-23

Today is still with the editor, tomorrow I will seek customer service for consultation.

Onlyou_li 2022-10-23

Hello, may I ask if you would like to switch to the "Measurement" template for your submission, or continue using the previous journal template? Also, I would like to ask if you prefer to highlight the revisions in red on the original document or explain them in the response to the reviewer's comments. Thank you so much!

Hello, how can I contact customer service?

I found the customer service and learned that only 2 review comments were returned and there are no other active reviewers. It has been 9 months since my manuscript was reviewed and I couldn't find anyone. I emailed the editor and asked if the decision could be made based on the 2 review comments. Perhaps both of the review comments returned are quite positive, and the editor accepted minor revisions. I think I can try recommending some more review experts to the editor.

Can I say congratulations? (laughs) It's even harder to endure the approval process. (cries)

SF221 2022-10-17

I would like to ask everyone, what does it mean when the dates under the "under review" stage keep changing frequently? Does it mean that there have been comments returned? My "Reviews completed" count has always been 0 and hasn't changed, but the dates keep changing frequently...

SF221 2022-10-17

Ah, the people waiting are all numb.

I received three reviewers upon the first submission. Two of them suggested revisions and one rejected the manuscript. The editor provided a rejection with resubmission option, so I resubmitted it. However, one reviewer disappeared and the other two provided feedback and comments. Until now, I have been unable to locate the third reviewer, causing a delay in the process.

SF221 2022-10-17

Do we really need three reviewers?... Up until now, I have only received two expert reviews... I have been waiting for three months.

Mchen 2022-10-17

It's not too bad to have a holiday break. However, it's really troublesome to find reviewers. I asked customer service and they said that at least three opinions from reviewers are needed for a final decision. But in the end, there were only two. I had to send an email to remind the editor, and only then did he make a decision.

It would be better if some recommended reviewers are available, but I'm worried that he won't use the ones you recommend.

The time displayed on the hired article may not necessarily be accurate. In my case, it was rejected and resubmitted, which means the time for the first round of review was not counted. This journal is indeed very slow, and it has been difficult to find reviewers. Also, it feels like the editor is frequently on vacation, only working for those two days in a month.

浑水摸鱼打老虎 2022-10-14

There is still no change in status this Friday.

Mchen 2022-10-13

The manuscript was submitted on December 7th, 21. Two weeks later, it went under review and remained under review ever since. The duration of the review process changed three times during this period, primarily due to difficulty in finding reviewers.

One reminder email was sent in the meantime. There was a response to the first reminder, but no response to the second one. Around September 10th, 22, the manuscript was accepted with minor revisions. In the end, only two review comments were provided, both addressing minor issues and requesting modifications to the abstract and title. There were no concerns regarding the main theme of the article. The process took nearly 10 months, which was indeed quite slow. When submitting to this journal, it might be helpful to refer to the review speed of articles in the same field, as the submission and acceptance dates are usually mentioned on the article's homepage.

SF221 2022-10-12

I now belong to the category where the date keeps changing, but there is no expert to complete the review... I feel so uncomfortable.

不会火拳的艾斯 2022-10-12

It's very torturous. Several times during the review process, the status remains unchanged but the dates get updated. There were a few times when I wanted to withdraw the submission. If it's for graduation purposes, I advise being cautious.

Can it be assumed as an automatic rejection if it exceeds 5 weeks? It's time to submit to another journal.

浑水摸鱼打老虎 2022-10-12

Does exceeding 5 weeks mean automatic rejection? Can I submit to another journal now?

20 days have passed, and it is still with the editor.

"Let's track and see."

SF221 2022-10-08

I would like to ask everyone, currently my "under review" status updates the date every five days at 4 PM (9 AM UK time). However, there is no feedback given. What's going on? It's frustrating.

I didn't pay attention to the status after the first submission, there were two reviewer comments. The status with editor lasted for over a month after the minor revision, and it is possible that the editor did not send it for further review and accepted it directly.

storm 2022-10-08

Submitted on September 15th, the last update of the status was on September 29th, with the editor. Is this journal's editor only working one day a week? If I have to wait for another month, I will consider withdrawing my submission and submitting it elsewhere. This speed is extremely frustrating.
