My Favorite Review of All Time

5/11/2015

0 Comments

 
Our paper (first-authored by Britt McKinnon) sat at Maternal Child Health Journal for almost 6 months, and came back today as "revise and resubmit" with 6 reviews, but each one was only a few lines long. 

For example, Reviewer 3 had only 3 lines of comments, which were numbered 1), 2) and 2).  The second comment number 2 was:

"The use of word WE is repeated so many times. Please change it at least in a few places to enhance readability."

to which we intend to repond:  "We agree."

But the best comment of all time goes to reviewer 5, who states (with no apparent irony or embarassment):

"The paper is very statistically oriented and would do well with a more ideological approach."
