2016
Motivation:
The editor in chief informed me that he turns down ~70% of submissions without peer review (after he reads them), and that my paper was not a tight enough fit for their primary audience of biodiversity scientists. I hoped it could work based on a few other papers similar to me published in the journal, but of course I respect the prerogative of the editor and appreciated the fast rejection.
