The responsibility of reviewers is to evaluate the quality, relevance, and merit of submitted papers. Comments should be as complete and detailed as possible and contain clear opinions about strengths, weaknesses, relevance, and importance to the field. Comments should be specific and constructive; suggestions should be intended to enhance the manuscript.

- Agree not to distribute the manuscript or to disclose information within the manuscript;
- Agree to be released as a reviewer after two refusals to review, two failures to review, or three late reviews;
