What checks are in place to make sure an editor hasn’t declined my work by mistake?

The editors continuously discuss and share your work during their editing sessions. Any editing decisions result from more than one, and usually multiple editors checking and considering each image or video on a one by one basis. Although one editor will usually sign the decline note, this does not mean that only one set of eyes has checked your content.

Additionally, every week, the editing team reviews all declined content to find content that we could have published. These are re-reviewed, and when appropriate, overturned.
