Hello, may I ask if this is a self-citation by the authors or by the journal itself? How long does it usually take for the manuscript to enter the publication stage after you submit the final draft?

The review process for this journal is extremely slow. It takes 45 days for the editorial team to handle submissions, followed by another month of decision pending. After seven months of initial review, the paper was rejected. One reviewer provided positive feedback and suggested minor revisions, while the other reviewer did not even read the content and simply stated that the paper lacked innovation. The editor ultimately decided to reject the paper. The situation in the third-party translation zone is chaotic. It would have been better to reject the paper directly if they did not want it, rather than dragging the process out for seven months and ultimately rejecting it despite positive feedback. I will never submit to this journal again.

The rejection was resubmitted on January 28th, and up to today, it is still pending review.

Submission on 3.12. Feeling very anxious seeing the submission cycles of all the experts in the comments section, not sure how long it will take to get results.

Can I ask which editor you submitted it to?

Hello, I would like to ask about the instruction in the TCNS journal to limit self-citations to the minimum necessary (not more than *FIVE*). Does this mean limiting the number of self-citations to no more than 5, limiting the proportion of self-citations to no more than 5%, or limiting the citation of one's own articles to no more than 5%?

Hello, just wanted to confirm that once the second round of revisions have been accepted (as recommended by the associate editor and the final decision is pending from the editor-in-chief), do I still need to resubmit in the system again? Thank you for your help!

How come I couldn't find the submission link when I clicked on "Submit Manuscript" on the official IEEE website?
