July 16 with editor becomes Under Review.

云哥妙雪 2023-07-15

I also submitted on June 13th and it is currently still in the hands of the editor. Nervous...

zxk 2023-07-15

Very slow, hope to be accepted soon, wishing for good luck.

有梦想谁都了不起之LG 2023-07-14

Decisions made without going through review usually end up being unsuccessful, I have experienced it before. I hope you can accept it directly, good luck to you!

What is your current condition like now?

Shewanella Jay 2023-07-08

The text translates to: "Submitted at the beginning of June, and it is still 'With Editor' up until now, over a month has passed."

小木虫秦 2023-07-02

When did you submit the contribution?

颖妹 2023-07-02

It's outrageous. Making decisions should be more straightforward.

小木虫秦 2023-07-02

It is still the same now, no changes.

颖妹 2023-07-01

What did you finally decide to do in this situation that I also encountered?

Jermyn 2023-06-29

The reviewer is very responsible. Some people say that waiting for 3 months is slow, but compared to other journals I have submitted to, it is already quite fast.

小木虫秦 2023-06-29

It has been almost a month. Is the editing decision really that slow? Has anyone's brain encountered such a situation before?

2023-06-28

I am too scared to push it, it has been three months already.

JINGw ZHANG 2023-06-18

Not submitted for review, the editor will directly decide whether to accept it or reject it.

小木虫秦 2023-06-17

The following text translates to English as: "Submitted for two days and it shows 'decision in process' directly. It has been over ten days, does anyone know what's going on?"

学茶的笨笨 2023-06-14

Submitted on March 6th, it is now June 14th. On June 9th, it changed back to "under review". Shouldn't it be another round of waiting? It has been three months, and it is still under review. It's the first time I've encountered such a long review period. I can't find any reminder emails either. Currently, I haven't received any revision information, and I'm feeling anxious.

The following text translates to English as: "Submitted two days ago and it shows 'Decision in Process'. It has been ten days already, does anyone know what's going on? Nervous."

How long does it take for a paper published in the journal in February to be included in SCI?

CikH 2023-04-01

Submitted on December 3, 2022
Accepted on March 31, 2023
Overall, it was a rather slow process, involving three reviewers and multiple rounds of major and minor revisions.

ZSZS 2023-03-25

I would like to ask everyone, where can I see the comments from the reviewer? My submission has been under review since December 15, 2022, and it is still in this status.

托马斯奎 2023-01-14

I used Huabei to make the payment.

丁小拼 2023-01-12

May I ask how you paid the layout fee? The articles are already online, but I haven't received any emails reminding me to pay the layout fee.

丁小拼 2023-01-03

Is this journal all open access? Have you paid the page charge?

托马斯奎 2022-12-28

LWT is the fourth journal that I submitted to, and the previous three were also in the top tier, but they all requested me to transfer. I submitted it on October 8th, 2022, and received acceptance on December 27th, 2022, with one major revision and one minor revision in between, without requiring additional experiments. The editor-in-chief is really nice, and working on Christmas is truly dedicated. Thumbs up!

yuandingmama 2022-12-12

It has been one month since the submission. It has already been sent for review, but there has been a change in the editor. What is the situation now?

TaoTao1998 2022-12-03

If the editor is busy, he may forget about your manuscript. However, as long as he enters the system to process manuscripts, he will see the progress of each manuscript, which ones have completed the review and need a decision, and which ones are urgent for processing. Minor revisions will definitely be accepted, after all, it is not a journal that only gives scores in the tens.

TaoTao1998 2022-11-28

Summary of submission experience:
9.21 Submitted to journal
9.24 With editor
9.26 Under review, sent to three reviewers
10.14 Received comments from the first reviewer
10.29 Received comments from the second reviewer, editor made a decision without waiting for the third reviewer, major revisions required. Overall, the comments were positive, no additional experiments required.
11.06 Submitted revised manuscript, addressed reviewers' questions and supplemented the content of the article
11.09 Sent for a second review, same reviewers as before
11.17 Received comments from the first reviewer
11.22 Received comments from the second reviewer
11.24 Editor's decision, major revisions required, one reviewer accepted the revisions, the other reviewer found the answers to two questions unsatisfactory and felt the decision for major revisions was arbitrary.
11.25 Addressed the two questions, resubmitted the revised manuscript
11.27 Accepted directly
Overall, it is difficult to obtain minor revisions now, most revisions are major, even though the revisions may not be very complex. The journal values innovation, and this article is innovative enough, which the editor seems to be interested in, so everything is going smoothly. However, this journal tends to have slower manuscript processing times, typically taking 3-4 months, so there is no need to rush the editor. Moreover, this journal does not provide any contact information for the editor, not even an email for customer service, so it is not recommended to request updates on the status of the manuscript.

TaoTao1998 2022-11-25

11.24 Second revision, another reviewer raised two questions.
11.25 Second revision submitted, awaiting final decision.
