I have noticed that, in many instances, there is a sharp contrast between the feedback provided by the first reviewer and the second reviewer. Since reviewers' identities are kept anonymous by journals that follow blind review, they are sometimes not serious about reviewing manuscripts. Therefore, including reviewers' names in published articles alongside authors ensures greater transparency and accountability in the blind review process. By recognizing the reviewers' contributions, we can promote a culture of appreciation that will help improve the quality of the review. This recognition not only honours the hard work of reviewers but also builds trust in the publication process, ensuring that all parties involved are acknowledged for their roles in advancing academic scholarship.
