Cow cow cow.

In July, the submission quickly entered the Under Review (UR) stage. In August, 10 reviewers were invited, and in September, seven more were invited. However, no one reviewed the paper. After sending a reminder letter, the process was restarted. Currently, it has just entered UR again and 20 reviewers have been invited, but no one has reviewed the paper yet.

Just received the decision letter today, in which the scientific editor requested major revisions despite all five reviewers agreeing to accept the paper with minor revisions. The editor asked for a clearer explanation of the novelty of the study. How should we tackle this?

Submission on June 28, 2026
Invited 20 for review on June 29
Nearly a month passed, no one accepted the invitation; editor invited 30+ more
First major revision on August 24, no major comments
Revision submitted on August 27, the same day
Minor revision on September 17, things started to get absurd: Reviewer 1 raised some minor issues and strongly praised the revision. Editor Saswati Basu directly altered the comments and made it more difficult.
Second review returned on September 24
Major revision on September 30??? The system shows both reviewers agree to accept. This editor also looked up articles published by the group in recent years and asked for comparisons, questioning the innovation.

Teacher, I encountered this editor, the first review didn't say much, the second review had one person agreeing to accept it and another raising a few minor suggestions, but the editor directly increased the difficulty of the suggestions. Now, all three reviewers agree to accept it, but she is asking for a major revision.

Submitted on July 19, 2026
Still under review as of September 20, 2026
Three reviewers were invited, the first two completed their reviews quickly. After waiting for over 20 days, it was discovered that the third reviewer had disappeared. Another reviewer was invited, but after waiting for over 20 days, there is still no response. Did not expect it to be this slow.

I submitted the article along with you, but it is in the hands of that Indian editor for major revisions. I just sent it back, so I don't know what the outcome will be.

I have encountered this editor as well. Six reviewers provided more than 30 comments. I just made the revisions, hopefully I won't be tricked.

It has been over a week and I still haven't received any news. What's the result?

Too slow. It's already 9.3 today and still no news since 8.24.

Submitted on the first day, rejected on the second day, not within the scope. I like journals that are straightforward and decisive, not the ones that beat around the bush.

Submitted at the end of May, revised by the end of June, took about three weeks for revisions, accepted in early August, the speed is acceptable. Thanks to editor Shanmuga Priya BP.

Li Jing, a full-time editor from China, edited a manuscript with four reviewers, three minor revisions, and one major revision. After several rounds of modifications due to issues with image numbering in the response, the editor requested that the numbering be consistent with the main text and supplementary information (SI), and all images in the response be included in the main text/SI. However, after the final revisions were made, the manuscript was rejected without being returned to the reviewers.

How can we avoid it? Can we block this editor?

Entering the proofreading stage 
It's really fast, but after reading through the comments, it's clear that it has a lot to do with the editor 
I am in the spectrum field, and my editor is Alejandro Olivieri, who is very efficient and super fast 
Hope everyone can have good results
