Could u add the link for the short title one as i couldn't find

Thanks

Amazing facts!!! I have seen similar cases earlier also and I think it is possible due to certain reasons.

With Thanks

Dear Dr Elangbam Chitra Devi

Yes it is possible, just we take note on these rare cases.

these from the strange things I ever have seen in my life

I think, it is possible.

The link of the short paper title:

I have also attached it.

my god

Dr. Gomaa A. M. Ali,

Really, highly surprising facts!!! Good GK for a researcher.

Thanks and regards

Yes unfortunately it is possible and I have had such experience too.

Dr. Hadeel Saleh Haj Aliwi,

The information you provided (Very long paper title and very short paper title) - also amazing!!!

Thanks and regards

Dear Dr Asit Kumar Batabyal

Yes, it is surprising, i am sure still more similar issues we may catch.

Absolutely no. Best regards.

Dear Dr. Barbara Sawicka

Yes this is very disappointed.

Yesterday I got a paper for review from Materials Chemistry and Physics journal, I spent the whole day on it and sent my review report on the same day to save the author time.

Agree with Dr.Parisa.

Dear Dr. Hadeel Saleh Haj Aliwi

Do you agree to add your two cases (long and short title information) to main statement.

Yes sure Dr. Gomaa

No

Dr. Gomaa,

" .......i am sure still more similar issues we may catch" .

What are the more surprising issues left (related to publication)? ....

Regards

Dear Dr. Asit Kumar Batabyal

By time we will discover many things those are hidden now.

Yes, Dr. Gomaa, You are right - we have to unfold those surprising matters. Thanks

I've also seen same strange things.

Interesting

Interesting and informative.

Many predatory journal publish article within 10 - 20 days.

In many cases, spelling mistakes and missing of some words in sentences are also not corrected!

Dedicated and hard working authors, editors, reviewers, publication house. I really appreciate all these peoples.

Dear Shibabrata Pattanayak

for sure we are talking on respected WoS (ISI) journals not for those without clears publication track.

Dear colleagues

The following comment is the english version of comment given by Dr Feng (in given link/website).

"One of the most authoritative and lengthy essays in the world

How long is the longest paper you have ever seen? Maybe you would say Mr. Chen Jingrun proved that the first draft of Goldbach's conjecture was as thick as more than 200 pages. This is written in Mr. Xu Chi's reportage Goldbach Conjecture or is the story of Mr. Chen Jingrun's proof of Goldbach's conjecture.

How many authors have you seen in the papers? You may think about it, at most a dozen chant. When it comes to heaven, there are hundreds of things. Oh, how many hundreds of papers do you have? If so, write a few pages of the author's name.

Let me tell you an odd thing ordinary people think: The longest paper I have ever seen has 1852 pages, with 2,646 authors.

Maybe you would say that I am making a story If you do not believe, click to see

this essay.

The paper has a 43.75MB PDF file.

Hey, I was the first time I saw such a spectacular academic thesis! It is an eye-opener."

The said paper is also available in the link given by Dr Feng.

Nice translation, Chitra! Thank u, Chitra!

Article Expected Performance of the ATLAS Experiment - Detector, Tri...

I asked a question on 11 May 2016 about how to submit my manuscript. Today, 27 January 2018, I eventually received a reply. Is it the longest period to answer an author from an editorial office? Certainly, I withdrew my submission before receiving this possibly latest reply.

If you need a testimony, I can send you a link privately by e-mail.

Dear Professor Gomaa A. M. Ali ,

Yes sir.I agree with you.

Last year one of my papers was accepted in three days by an Elsevier journal. However, before I submitted it to the Elsevier journal, it had been submitted to several other journals one by one. Therefore, we can not say it was accepted in three days.

In mathematics, generally it is a very long period to successfully publish a paper.

The longest I have personally experienced is 19 months (i.e. between submission and editorial decision).

Not so long time in comparison to 13 years! (as mentioned by Dr. Gomaa). Regards

Dear Dr Rushan Ziatdinov

I recommend to remind the editor to follow up with the reviewer, now 14 months is very long time.

one of my paper returned after 2.5 year by saying no suitable referee found!!!!

Dr. Nisar - Interesting journal! They should understand the agony of an author. Regards

2.5 year just in search of a referee?? This is certainly a bad way of treating an author.

Interesting....

1- Very Long Publication Time, occurs only in mathematics.

2- Very Short Publication Time, be careful of predatory journals.

3- High Number of Authors, if they have active contribution so, no problem.

4,5 - Very Long or short Paper Title, journal guidelines.

Dear Dr Abdallah Hussien Fathy

Agree with you BUT

Here we are not talking about these journal, I gave example of WoS journal IF=2.3 and this is not predatory one.

Do you think all the 5000 authors were contributed.

Dear Dr. Gomaa,

Its really very interested records, i was surprised really while i'm reading it.

but what i knew about the High Energy Physics papers which produced by the massive research groups at CERN that they got that much numbers (1000) of authors but i did not expect that it will be high to 5000 authors.

Dear: Dr. Gomaa

Interested question

Dr. Gomaa - Any more strange notes (information) ? I appreciate you for the question - we got a lot of strange information from this page. Regards

It is very strange that such a long period was taken by the publisher to publish an article. Further, i got lot of information from this question.

Dear Prof. Asit Kumar Batabyal

For sure if i got more, i will update the post (question) above. Some answers from colleagues shows other similar issues too.

Thanks Dr. Gomaa.

Title usually represent the content of the paper. I believe the title of the paper should be fairly in between but there is no standardization. Title can be as long or short as it took as long as it represent the primary components in the research

Dear Dr. Yousef

It is Ok, but do you think one word can reflect and represent the work's content completely. In addition, I think the 88 words could be reduced into more smart and short title.

Anyway, this is no B&W roles for this.

Very new information to me@ Gomaa A. M. Ali

Thanks

@Gomaa A. M. Ali

In Research, there is no standardization rules but what we write here is the generally accepted practice.

Very short publication time, here is a new record :

The Shortest-Known Paper Published in a Serious Math Journal: Two Succinct Sentences

Euler's conjecture, a theory proposed by Leonhard Euler in 1769, hung in there for 200 years. Then L.J. Lander and T.R. Parkin came along in 1966, and debunked the conjecture in two swift sentences. The paper appeared in the Bulletin of the American Mathematical Society.

Dear Dr Nabaa Hasoon كلية التربية للبنات

You just copy a previous comment (someone words). Please give attention.

Dr. Gomma - Copyright infringement! Is it correct?

Dear Dr Asit Kumar Batabyal, yes to some extent.

Although the statements on social platforms like RG have no black and white copyright role, we may consider it as publication issue.

Thank you for sharing this question.

Dear Dr Enas Shehata

Still the paper mentioned above has the shortest publication time (23 days from submission to final publication). That paper you mentioned took 28 days.

Got a question, might not be related to the thread. But I have sent a publication to the Applied Psychophysiology and Biofeedback, sent the 12 of October, till, now, no answer, surprisingly, it has been under a moth that the status says... "Editor Declined Invitation" , anyone else had similar experience? Already texted the journal, but no solution or reply for the issue. Thanks in advance!

Interesting informations!

Thanks Dr. Gomma A. M. Ali
