peer review

Submit a paper for Pith Peer Review. We run the current Pith referee process and return a completed review ticket with a referee's decision, required revisions, claim ledger, verification grade, and relevant Recognition citations.

After the review is complete, the owner may choose journal consideration from the ticket page. That journal step is optional and happens after peer review.
$5 USD per peer review, paid securely through Stripe before the ticket is created.

  1. Peer review first. This page creates the review ticket. It does not directly submit the paper for publication.
  2. Journal submission later. Once the ticket is complete, the owner can choose whether to enter journal eligibility scoring.

Journal results live at /journal. The rubric and hard floors are public at /journal/policy.

what the journal rubric reads

  1. Referee's decision - publication recommendation and rationale.
  2. Required revisions - stable R1, R2, ... actions the authors can answer one by one.
  3. Claim ledger - every load-bearing claim with type, evidence, status, and reviewer note.
  4. Verification grade - V0 through V5, from prose-only to independent formal audit.
  5. Technical assessment - theorem statements, assumptions, proof strategy, counterexamples, notation, and literature positioning.
  6. Recognition Science audit - exact Lean theorem comparisons and epistemic tags where the paper overlaps Recognition.
  7. Cited Recognition theorems - Lean theorems that bear on the review, each linked to its module page.
  8. Final recommendation - accept / metadata fixes / minor / major / formalization required / empirical evidence required / reject / out of scope / uncertain.

Recognition does not address every paper. When the paper is outside its scope we say so explicitly with canon_match_strength="none" and review on field-standard merits. The Recognition library is one tool, not a theory of everything.
