Please clarify the process[edit]

After the comment step, is it still the same paper or a different paper already? Perhaps the picture need to be clarified. [[User:K61824|]][[User_talk:K61824|]] 20:09, 8 June 2014 (UTC)

The step is called "Writing a paper", not "A paper". With the emphasis on the process rather than the paper itself, it neatly avoids that issue. 192․168․1․42 (talk) 21:02, 8 June 2014 (UTC)
Generally speaking, the comments step is more to eke out small clarifications or error corrections. If the suggested changes are such that the final result could be considered a different paper entirely, it would be sent back for an entire rewrite. - Grant (talk) 00:13, 9 June 2014 (UTC)
