Frontiers' classic cash cow journals have a huge circulation volume and are bound to be blacklisted sooner or later, so submit your articles carefully

I also only have one reviewer all along

It has been a week since submission, and there is still only one reviewer in the reviewing process. Is it not acceptable for a journal to have only one reviewer?

Review Speed: 2.0 | Submission Success Rate: 50.0
Experience Sharing: The journal is quite fast, submitted on May 31st, and interactive review started on June 22nd. Due to my slow revision, I requested an extension, and finally revised it on July 22nd. Accepted on July 25th, the editorial department is very efficient. Thumbs up!

Experience sharing: It is important to take each reviewer's comments seriously. I combined the opinions of two reviewers when submitting, but unfortunately, my paper was rejected. I feel really sad

May I ask if I only need to click on "request extension" in the system to apply for an extension to revise this magazine? Do I need to inform the editor by sending an email as well?

Do we just need to click on "request extension" in the system if we want to apply for an extension to revise this magazine? Do we also need to send an email to the editor to inform them?

The first reviewer provided very detailed feedback and was quite professional. After making the suggested revisions, the submission was directly accepted the next day.

The second reviewer took half a month and directly rejected the paper, with vague reasons and several low-level errors in their suggestions. It was either intentionally trying to upset people or not very knowledgeable in this area. Overall, the impression was not good, resulting in rejection.

Therefore, a third reviewer was sought, who completed the review in 3 days and provided a lot of feedback. They seemed very professional and had a sharp perspective. Although I added an experiment out of personal interest and casually wrote an article in this direction to complete the task, the reviewer was still friendly. After making further revisions, the paper was accepted the next day.

Within 3 days, the associate editor provided many suggestions on writing style and expression, which were minor changes. Afterwards, the paper was directly accepted.

In summary, the review process was strict, efficient, and the experience with the submission platform was excellent.

The circulation volume is too large, will it be blacklisted?

I am very anxious about the investment and don't know when the alarm will be triggered.

The circulation is too large, it's scary, in the thousands.

Actually, what I wrote is a bit shallow, but the circulation of this publication is also a bit scary, isn't it?

How did you eventually solve it? It has been over a week and my article still hasn't been assigned an editor

Thank you for your reply! It has been over a week and my editing still hasn't been assigned. Sigh.

My response is relatively fast. The editing was assigned on the third day, and the reviewer gave feedback within a month.

Hello, may I ask how long it takes for the manuscript to be sent for external review after submission? It has been several days for me and it is still in the editorial assignment stage. It seems that it hasn't been assigned to an editor yet.
