List of papers that were accepted because reviewers didn’t see them properly. Yes, the “Get me off your fucking mailing list” is one of them. My favourite besides that is the one that lists the writer’s dog as the author.

Author NM said “waouf” when the authors started to doubt (doubts are common in science, don’t let them win you over, believe in yourself and what you do, don’t let anyone distract you from the truth you know).

Does anyone else feel like the list should be chronological and not alphabetical by discipline?

There doesn’t seem to be any contentious edit war regarding the sorting… Maybe this is finally my time to make a major edit.

Probably not, though, there isn’t much to hold the list cohesively either way.

OP

I do agree with you; most list of incidents generally makes most sense to list them in chronological order. No clue why they did it, but it really didn’t bother me much.
