Edifying Editing

چکیده
I’ve spent a considerable amount of time as an editor. I’ve rejected about 2,500 papers, and accepted 200. No one likes a rejection and less than 1% consider it justified. Fortunately, there is some duplication across authors, so I have only made around 1,800 enemies. The purpose of this little paper is to answer in print the questions I am frequently asked in person. These are my answers but may not apply to you.
