| Jun 10 at 16:39 | comment | added | Significance | Even in the environmental and biological sciences, where we can be very generous with co-authorships, commenting on a draft manuscript and suggesting areas for improvement would only warrant an acknowledgement. | |
| Jun 10 at 14:06 | comment | added | Anyon | Acknowledgments like "We thank Akash for a careful reading of the manuscript." or "We thank Akash for helpful comments on an early version of the manuscript." would be appropriate also in physics. Also, yes, it seems that expectations were not made clear in this case. | |
