I submitted it three weeks ago, and the status is still “With Editor” without any change in the status date. Does this mean the editors haven’t looked at my manuscript yet?

The reviewer rejected it, saying that a research paper should include significant reviews and criticisms. I have included all similar studies from this year in the introduction, and also compared them to other studies in the final section. The amount of review in the accepted article is much greater than mine, which is strange.

Try submitting a research paper to test the waters, submitted to WE on 8.27.

Reply [lEi]: I introduced some of my own and my team's research directions, and then mentioned that the review of a certain direction is not deep enough. I hope to be given an opportunity to submit a review article + outline of personal research plans, and finally attach some of the team's good research papers from the past five years.

Hello, I also plan to write a review in the near future. Can you please advise me on how to write a proposal for the editor?

I submitted a review paper around October of 2024, and wrote a proposal to the editor. Received a reply that it can be submitted. Submitted in December 2024. Under review in February 2025. Major review in April 2025. Resubmitted in May 2025. Finally accepted in May 2025. The process was faster than expected. Thank you to the reviewers and editors.

Hello, may I ask if the journal has strict requirements on the word count? Do we need to write to the editor separately if we exceed the word limit specified in the Guide for authors? Please reply after reading.

Hello, is the control of word count strict for journals? If the word count exceeds the limit specified in the Guide for Authors, do I need to write a separate letter to the editor-in-chief?

(0) 讚！ | CAUer~

Yes, it is a review article.

It took six months from submission to acceptance. The early stage was slow, with the manuscript taking four months to be reviewed. After receiving major revisions, minor revisions were requested. The manuscript was accepted just two days after the minor revisions were returned. Overall, the early stage was slow, but the review process was quick. The reviewers were responsible and professional. Those with ample time can give it a try, but those nearing graduation are not recommended to do so.

Review article, submitted from May 2024 to April 2025, with a review period of nearly one year. After major revisions and minor revisions, finally wrapped up the first work of graduate students. I hope the journal will continue to improve, and I wish everyone smooth submissions!

Excuse me, brother, in this situation, can we directly submit to another journal without rejection or withdrawal? Will it be considered as duplicate submission?

I have been waiting for a year and a half for review, and it feels like the reviewer has disappeared. It's really worrying.
