有篇3分SCI投中后要撤稿

我有位苦逼的硕士哥们，前段时间投中一篇3分的SCI，本来倒是一件好事，但这个杂志收费不低（约1.5万RMB），老板不太愿意出这个钱，让他改投一本不收钱的杂志，如果自己出这个钱，又不甘心，所以只好撤稿。

丁香园的小伙伴给他出了点主意。A：“小弟啊，我给你出版面费，你当第一，我当通讯，老板随便你排哪个位置，如何？”B：“给俺吧，俺帮你报完版面费，还多给你饭钱。”A：“楼下的就不要跟我抢了，行不行？！先来后到”C：“我也来参和下，我是三作哦”D：“四作报道”E：“我是不是来晚了”…….

我们言归正传，讲讲如何SCI撤稿。

撤稿的原因，无非是1、审稿太慢，急着毕业或升职称；2、投完后发现不能拿来毕业或升职称用；3、版面费太贵，悔了；4、目前体制问题国内有很多人会一稿多投，当文章被其中一份杂志接收后，其他杂志就得撤稿；5、论文有错误；6、最悲惨的莫过于文章刚被接收，该杂志就被踢出SCI。

关于撤稿，有作者担心编辑不高兴，甚至会被打入黑名单。其实这种担心是没有必要的。但需要说明的是，你为什么要撤稿？材料方法不可靠，结果不能重复，还是设计本身有问题？这都是撤稿的理由。

有的投稿系统会有decline revision，如果没有，可写信给杂志社撤稿吧，下面给几个撤稿信模板：

1、

Dear Editor,
Thank you very much for your kind remind and helps. However, we are sorry that we have to withdraw the submission of our paper (Manuscript Number,MN:…) . The reason is that, first, if we revise the paper according to the reviewers' comments point by point, we will pay much time to make tests and then plot the data in the revised paper, second, we feel that we have not yet studied our work completely and have some difficulties to answer some questions of the reviewers' comments and add their answers or solutions in the revised paper quickly. Of course, our work in this paper is complex and difficult because it is related with the magnetism, mechanics, electrostatics, electrics and some couplings among them. I am very sorry that we had to make this decision and continue our investigation of this work further. I appreciate the reviewers very much for their careful work and helpful suggestions. Thank you again.
Kind Regards,
Your name

Dear editor,

We submitted a paper to **three months ago. The paper is still under review now. We feel really sorry to tell you that we want to withdraw our manuscript (Ms.Ref.No.**), because we want to do further study about the part of validation of *and the *. In the figure *,the difference between * and * has something wrong. After we find the reason, we will revise the part of section then submit it again. Thank you very much for your consideration.

Best regards

Dear Editor:
Thanks for allowing us the opportunity to revise our work. However, after carefully reading the comments posed by your referees, we are sorry to say that our work has serious problems that need to be addressed before it can be resubmitted for your consideration. In addition, we found mounting up to date information is missing and many parts need to be re-written. It is therefore we decide to withdraw our manuscript from the journal because we are afraid we can not finish so many changes in a reasonable time. Thank you very much for your consideration.
Sincerely
Your name

总而言之，态度一定要端正，撤稿都是我们的研究做得不好，我们深刻反省。

最后再给两个催稿模板：
