The review speed is very fast. After submission, the editor rejects it within one working day. It seems that the review speed of MDPI's affiliated journals is also very fast.

I submitted the contribution during May Day, and it has been five or six days now. The status is still pending review. Could it be that the foreign country has not resumed work yet? Or is it that my submission is rejected? Anybody else in the same situation?

Can a submission be rejected even after being sent for review due to mismatched theme? Did you resubmit it afterwards?

LITUANTUAN 2022-05-05

May I ask if you reapplied after being rejected? Were you accepted?

I don't understand, in the time it takes for a classmate to finish a meal, everything has changed.

Who knows if it's a holiday abroad? I submitted a special issue four days ago, and it's still pending review. It feels very worrying.

巴德富分 2022-05-04

Submitted a special issue, it has been 4 days, still pending review, feeling even worse.

天空之城1118 2022-05-04

Submitted a special issue, it has been pending review for 24 hours straight, feeling uneasy.

天空之城1118 2022-05-04

Hello, how many days has your pending review changed?

CCCJQ 2022-04-29

The reason for instant rejection may be that you did not format it according to the journal's requirements. If you have followed the journal's requirements for submission and still got rejected instantly, I am not sure either, as I am also a novice. Good luck to you.

LITUANTUAN 2022-04-28

Hello, may I ask why my comment was instantly rejected and not reviewed? There was no reason given, and I'm really going crazy. Please help me, am I the only one whose comment wasn't reviewed?

CCCJQ 2022-04-27

Thank you all for your comments and help.

CCCJQ 2022-04-27

Thank you, bro, I followed your instructions. Among them, two reviewers accepted it, and then the reviewer who was a bit "picky" suggested some minor revisions, with 9 small issues. In the end, it was accepted. Thank you. ?‍

Is there any difference between special issue and regular issue?

LITUANTUAN 2022-04-26

Hello, may I ask if once a submission is pending review, and it doesn't change, does it mean it's hanging? Have you accepted it now?

LITUANTUAN 2022-04-26

Hello, may I ask what happened to you after "pending review"?

LITUANTUAN 2022-04-26

Should I include well-made pictures in the cover letter? Why?

I hope the journal can be managed well and publish more high-level papers. However, it's quite expensive. We are also four reviewers, and one of them rejected the paper but gave feedback saying that the logic, innovation, and methodology were not satisfactory. However, there were no substantial suggestions given. The other three reviewers accepted the paper with minor revisions.

Article written with my senior brother, who was in a hurry to graduate and only submitted to RS. Otherwise, he planned to submit to a better journal. On March 24th, we received the first-round comments from four reviewers and were notified to make major revisions, with a given time frame of 10 days. However, at that time, all the collaborators were very busy, so it took around twenty days to complete the revisions and return them. Four days after submitting the revisions, it was accepted. (Interestingly, when we were checking the revisions before uploading them, we found that the editor's comments had arrived, indicating acceptance after minor revisions).

Overall, the process was very fast, but in recent years, the publication rate has been increasing at a rate of thousands of articles per year, and the review process is not very strict. We hope that MDPI can maintain the quality of the articles and not let their few remaining decent journals collapse.

It should be that your picture format is not standardized, and this journal has strict requirements for format specifications. Additionally, no matter what modifications you make, you should indicate them in the cover letter.

It should be that your image format is not standardized. This journal has strict requirements for formatting. Additionally, regardless of what you have modified, you should indicate it in the cover letter.

The suggestion is to write a cover letter carefully, fully explaining the significance of your research and allowing the reviewers to see your seriousness. Also, attach the well-prepared pictures to the cover letter. Good luck!

How long did it take to be retrieved online?

只想躺平的渣 2022-04-07

It has already been received and published online since January 15th, why hasn't it been indexed in WOS yet in April? I don't understand.
Has anyone else experienced a delay of almost three months in indexing?
