Striking-Warning9533 · reddit · 2026-09-21
A Reddit user raised concerns about ICLR's review policy: authors whose names appear on 3 or more papers are required to serve as reviewers, with no stated qualification criteria. The poster gives an example — if a new student, Alex, was 4th author on 3 lab papers, would he be forced to review despite being unqualified? The thread highlights worries about the policy's fairness and practicality.
