Explaining Editorial Decisions Regarding Scientific Paper Submissions

Accept: We’re a shitty journal and we’ll accept anything. Even your pathetic rubbish.

Accept with Minor Changes: The referees haven’t read your piece of crap. All they ask is that you add every single one of their own papers to your bibliography section.

Accept with Major Changes: Your paper is worthless. However, if you change the Introduction, Previous Work, Methodologies, Setup, Results, and Conclusion sections, we might change our mind. (Or not.)

Revise and Resubmit: We still won’t accept your insignificant drivel but it will help our submission statistics when the publisher moves to shut us down.

Reject: Really?? You need that one explained?
