Problem with Peer Review
Jamie of the Portacabin Started conversation Mar 19, 2001
The only reason this problem has come to my attention is because it suddenly seems to have become mine. 
It seems to me that the only way any peers are going to review your entry in the peer review is if the title seems interesting. I submitted an entry for peer review yesterday (Pars Iranian Restaurant, Dubai, UAE) and still no-one has responded. Yet I notice that the ones with vaguely interesting titles such as 'Body Art' and 'Mock-Goths' seem to be constantly reappearing as having the most recent post.
Does this make the peer review system biased? Does it compromise its efficiency or effectiveness? Has anyone else had this problem?
