The discussion centers on a user seeking feedback for a short essay intended for the Gravity Research Foundation's contest. They have previously received helpful critiques on Reddit and are exploring whether this forum is suitable for further feedback. The user inquires about the appropriate subforum for posting their essay, which is formatted in LaTeX, and whether to link it or submit it in full. A Mentor responds, indicating that the essay is not suitable for posting on the forum and locks the thread. The user is advised to send the essay via private message for review.

I have a relatively short essay (4 pages) that will be submitted to the Gravity Research Foundation's 2022 essay contest, and I'd like to field criticisms. I've posted on Reddit and received helpful feedback, but I thought this forum might provide a more focused discussion. I don't want to break any rules, of course, so I'm wondering which, if any, subforum would be appropriate for this?

Also, the entire essay is in LaTeX; if I can post, should I just link it or copy it over in its entirety as a submission?

Thanks in advance!

Hmm, that's not usually allowed (especially for a 1-post newbie), but let me check with the other Mentors. I'll lock this thread temporarily...

Welcome to PF, BTW. :smile:

In the mean time, can you please send it to me as a Private Message (PM)? Just click on my avatar and "Start a conversation". Thanks.
 
The Mentor review of the paper is complete, and it is not suitable for posting here. This thread will stay locked.

Hello everyone, I recently revisited Physics Forums after a long hiatus (about 4-5 years) and started catching up on the recent discussions. What immediately struck me—and what inspired this thread—is seeing so many of the exact same user names in the "Latest Posts" section who were just as active when I was last here! To the dedicated, long-term, and continuously active members of this community: What keeps you coming back and contributing regularly after all this time? Is it the joy...
