Review Process Enhancements
Ivanna Parra
- Once we submit an article for review, we can remove the review state unless we publish it. This isn't ideal in scenarios where the article was disapproved and we just want to get it out of review and submit it again when it's adjusted. In these cases, we have to publish the article and unpublish it to remove the review state.
- Once the reviewer disapproves the article and the author makes the changes, he can't resubmit it for review. How does the reviewer know they updated it and that they need to review it again?
- Related to those two points, users without the "unlock publish" ability cannot get articles outside of the review state and cannot re-submit them for review. The only approach right now is to add a comment in the article to notify the reviewer that he needs to check it again.
- Review comments aren't saved in the editor. We should have a log of the review rounds with the corresponding comments.
