Notification of Archival Status for Your Submission

We occasionally experience issues with our email client, which may prevent the journal system from sending notifications to authors. If the status of your submission has changed from Active to Archived, it indicates that an initial review by the Editorial Board has been completed, and unfortunately, your manuscript has been rejected for not meeting one or more of our requirements:

• Non-compliance with Author Guidelines or a high similarity index (over 20%).
• Lack of scientific merit or insufficient contribution to research.
• Incompatibility with the journal’s scope and readership.
• Insufficient diversity in authorship or research area.
• Content issues, such as language errors, inadequate introduction, lack of a research gap or research questions, unclear aims, a literature review that does not thoroughly explore the topic, unsound methodology, poorly addressed results, lack of discussion, outdated references, or references not following APA 7th style.
• Significant AI-generated content (exceeding 10%).
• Prioritization of research articles; review articles are accepted by invitation only.

Due to the high volume of submissions, we are unable to provide additional details regarding this decision. We hope this outcome does not discourage you from submitting other relevant work to Studies in English Language and Education. Please note that rejected manuscripts cannot be resubmitted to this journal, and any such attempts will be disregarded. We encourage you to consider submitting your work to another journal.

Warning! 
We were notified that some individuals had promoted Studies in English Language and Education in some social media groups and promised publication to articles in one month in SiELE. We would like to clarify that they are not associated with us in any way, and the promise of a one-month publication is simply misleading. We only publish articles three times a year, and we strictly follow the review process as explained in SiELE's Author Guidelines.
