一篇文章被拒稿,我打算转头其他期刊,合作者给了以下回复。
The referees in the journals you suggested are likely to be the same or similar to those from XXXXX , where the paper was rejected. (for example, XXXXX is the same family as XXXXX, and XXXX's editors/referees for this type of paper also do work for XXXX). And the paper does not add a strong reason to prefer this method over the XXXXXX, which is already published.
So the referees/editor in those journals may have a poor opinion of the paper, which will give all of us a bad reputation and make it difficult for us to publish in the future.
XXXX might have a different pool of editors/referees who may still appreciate the topic, which is why we decided on XXXX.
尤其是红色的文字,意思是文章可能给他们带来负面影响吗?
最后的一个期刊稍微低一些,我建议的两个期刊一个是一类,一个是二类。他们说的是比二类期刊略低。
