"I am very pleased that my paper on the merits and demerits of antipsychotic drug treatment has been published in your journal. I am grateful that I was able to create a good paper by combining the specialized problem of endoplasmic reticulum stress response with the clinical issues of psychotropic drugs. Regarding the peer review process, I do not mean to criticize the reviewers, but I was disappointed that there were some non-specialized views scattered throughout. The fact that the content was somewhat thin despite the large word count is probably because they did not understand the specialized content. I hope that you will select appropriate reviewers in the future."

"As a frequent researcher and a reviewer for WJP, I would like to humbly offer a smart suggestion to further improve the efficiency of the Baishideng Publishing Group (BPG): Suggestion: Consider developing a more intuitive "Interactive File Exchange Module"​ within the F6 Publishing System. Proposed Features: Dedicated Drop-zone:​ A specific area within the "Author Comments" or "Production Query" section where authors can drag and drop large image files (TIFF/PNG) or tables directly, bypassing email size limits. Version Control:​ A simple interface to manage different versions of figures (e.g., "Figure 2D_v2") to avoid confusion between the production team and the authors. Real-time Status Tags:​ Indicators showing whether the editor has successfully downloaded the file or if the file is pending review. Benefit: This enhancement would significantly reduce the back-and-forth emails regarding missing files and ensure that high-resolution figures and supplementary data are archived securely and efficiently. I truly appreciate your consideration of this suggestion. Thank you for fostering such a supportive environment for scholars."

"Regrettably, my experience with the editorial process has been highly negative. The manuscript was initially accepted for publication, and I was duly notified and provided with the galley proofs for correction. Months later, however, I was informed that the article could not be published as it allegedly did not comply with the journal's editorial guidelines—despite the fact that I had already reviewed and returned the corrected proofs. Following a subsequent revision of the manuscript and a second formal notification of acceptance, I was informed weeks later of an allegation stating the manuscript had been generated using AI. I promptly and thoroughly addressed these claims. Thereafter, the galley proofs were resent to me once again. I am deeply disappointed by the handling of the peer-review and editorial process regarding my manuscript, as well as by the extensive and unwarranted delays incurred"
