Full disclosure: no skin in the game.

"Beginning February 1, 2026, arXiv will require that all submissions have a full English-language version, either as the original language or as an included translation."

The reason?

"Our goal with this policy change is not to discourage authors, but to encourage a bilingual or multilingual model for papers that will increase the efficiency and effectiveness of arXiv moderation, as well as broaden the availability of papers to a global readership."

Which is, of course, why American papers will be required to submit a full Hungarian version, either as the original language or as an included translation.

Oh wait – They lie! The policy change is in fact designed to flatten international culture, and impose English on everyone.

Now, what are they going to do about the lazy arses who submit and accept #AISlop? Nothing?

Is there a word-phrase to describe citations that are meaningful, ones that understand the context in which what they are citing was written & that use the cited work in ways that enhance their own - the opposite of 'vanity referencing' [1/2]

Africa: How African Students Can Learn How to Write a Research Paper Successfully: [InfoWire] Writing academic assignments at university can be stressful, especially if it is your first time preparing a full research paper. Many African students face real barriers: limited access to digital libraries, tight deadlines, balancing school with work, and adapting to strict academic standards. Yet with… newsfeed.facilit8.network/TPmj #ResearchPaper #AcademicWriting #AfricanStudents #WritingTips #Education

Despite being extremely vocal against #LLM , I strongly suspect that too many juniors (not just students) are using it for reports and manuscripts. I have no problem in dedicating my time to edit a draft so that someone with less experience will improve their #academicWriting , but editing #AiSlop is really starting to annoy me.

How are other people in #academia (including juniors) dealing with this? How to tag (or self-tag) someone's own work?

I’ve submitted my paper to a third journal. Growth takes iteration; autonomy lives in persistence. Third time’s the charm.

Progress isn’t always a “yes.”
After three years of work and two journal submissions, I got a meaningful rejection, a reviewer who understood the distinctive idea calling it humane and elegant yet was still harsh “nonobvious nonsense.” They suggested revise-and-resubmit.

Sometimes the quiet steps forward still matter. I keep going. I will rewrite.

I still remember staring at a blank document at 2 a.m., knowing the deadline was in a few hours… my heart racing, my mind frozen. It wasn’t that I didn’t care, I didn’t know where to start.
If you’ve ever felt that mix of panic and exhaustion while writing an essay or research paper, I get it.
That’s why I do what I do now. I help students find clarity when the noise gets too loud.

Going back to reading #EnvironmentalPhilosophy for the last chapter in my #dissertation asking how lay people define 'nature'. All I want to do is dive into years of #deepEcology and #ecoFeminism books with a pot of tea on my back patio, but I have to remain focused if I actually want to graduate. Curse the #researchRabbitHole! You will always be tempting me to wander off the path when what I need to do is write. my. damn. introduction.

What makes #AcademicWriting incisive?

What role and responsibility does it have in times of urgency, when human-inflicted injustice, cruelty, ecocide, genocide, and many other harms are imposed by those in power.

Some thoughts in here, especially towards the end tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10

Unpopular opinion: I actually enjoy reading #proofs of the accepted article. It’s probably the last chance to read the “masterpiece” from start to finish.

The funny part is, they sent me the proofs early on Saturday morning and asked me to get it done ideally within 48 hours. 🥲

Just talked with #DisabilityServices at Colorado Christian University. They’re encouraging me to use #MicrosoftWord instead of #LaTeX for schoolwork, since Word has built-in dictation that could help when my #RheumatoidArthritis flares up and typing gets hard.

To other #Blind folks: how do you remember all of Word’s keyboard shortcuts? I swear I spend more time navigating the ribbon than actually writing. I stick with LaTeX because I can remember commands better than shortcuts.

They said Word’s dictation is accessible, so I’m giving it a shot. But I’m also wondering: what reference managers do you use? I’ve been using #Zotero since it works with #VSCode and LaTeX, but I don’t know how well it integrates with Word — and definitely not with #PowerPoint. My school has me doing a lot of #APA-style presentations lately.

Would love tips from anyone juggling accessibility, citations, and academic workflows.
