So, science isn't about the Truth, about what is and is not, about how the world works, but a popularity contest.

Was it always like that, or is the past romanticised ?

"What you've wrote" is acceptable even if "what you've written" or "what you wrote" are better form, but "What you written" is a big nono.

>> No.11365935

>>11365834
no
"wrote" is not the past participle of "write"
that's the equivalent of saying "what you've took," "what you've stole" or "what you've did."

He is right in that you shouldn't contradict yourself in the paper.
He is not right in suggesting that this should therefore remove the papers that contradict your hypothesis.

Either incorporate the new evidence into your hypothesis, or refute it. Do not present two contradictory truths.

>>11365139
Lol, this is stupid. What if I contradict the well-established theory and I explain why I dare to do so?

>Do not present two contradictory truths.
Can I tell that it's rather A hypothesis or it's B hypothesis and I explain what experiments should be performed to distinguish which one it is?

If you do a good job explaining it then your chances are probably better but even then peer review is still a coin toss and your paper can end up in the hands of some boomer retard that will turn you down for the most meaningless shit.

>> No.11367063

>>11365089
There are journals that will accept any paper without peer review, if only you pay them something like $500 in "author submission fee". Surely that is your way out. Of course noone in their right mind would take your paper seriously, but you can still make it an item in your publication list. Lots of people do that.

>> No.11367105

>>11367063
That much is actually true. But apparently you chose a crappy journal which employs crappy referees. Whereas if you have a good paper, you ought to send it to a good journal that sends it to competent reviewers. With the added bonus that if the review happens to be crap anyway, then you can complain to the editor who is handling your paper, and if you are right, you will get another go with a replacement referee.

>> No.11367122

>>11366982
Sure if it was a significant work to it narrow down to two hypotheses. If there were two possibilities to begin with, then you contributed nothing.

>> No.11367139

What if the possibilities are "the jews conspired and corrupted the science" and "science got corrupted by natural reasons because retards are also allowed to become scientists"?

If you prove an well-established theory wrong then you are a superhero. But you will get extra scrutiny, especially after publication, so you better be extra careful.
Peer reviewers wont reproduce your experiment. They only care if given the results you presented if your conclusion consistent. They also care about the readability of the paper and most importantly, proper use of the Oxford comma.

True, true, but you know it can't be published any way. Not in academic literature. No matter how accurate the proof is.
