Dr. Quackington Mallard, PhD | June 20, 2024
Dr. Quackington Mallard, a specialist in solid state spectroscopy with a focus on quackaluminescence, voices concerns about the journal’s English-only submission policy. Dr. Mallard argues that this requirement limits the richness of scientific discourse by excluding quack, a language integral to many duck researchers. He highlights the nuances of quack that are lost in translation and the potential barriers this policy creates for non-English proficient ducks. Dr. Mallard proposes allowing multilingual submissions with English translations to foster inclusivity and enhance the journal’s commitment to diversity in scientific communication.
