Setting the Reviewer Minimum and Reviewer List

You set the minimum number of reviewers and the yearly reviewer list at the top of the Review criteria card on the Guidelines & review criteria tab of the journal.

1. Open the journal with Manage journal and go to the Guidelines & review criteria tab.
2. In the Minimum reviewers per round field, type a number between 1 and 5. The default value is 2.
3. To publish the reviewer list, tick the Publish the yearly list of reviewers box.
4. Press Save at the bottom of the tab.

Minimum number of reviewers

If a round has fewer reviewers than this number, the editor is warned by the Reviewer rules note on the Reviewers tab of the submission. The warning does not block any action. TR Dizin (Türkiye's national citation index) expects at least two reviewers. The note is described in Tracking Invitations and Reviews.

Yearly reviewer list

If the list is turned on, an Our reviewers link appears on the journal page. The list includes only reviewers who allowed the publication of their name in their review. The reviewers are listed by the year they submitted the review, with their titles, names and institutions. Within each year the list is in alphabetical order of the full name; the title does not affect the order. The list does not say which article they reviewed. While the list is turned off, this page does not open.

The permission of the reviewer is an optional box in the review form, and it starts unticked. Details are in Writing a Review.
