Community Guidelines

RubbishReview is a community built on humor, honesty, and the shared experience of academic failure. To keep this space enjoyable for everyone, please follow these guidelines.

1. Be Respectful

We laugh at failed experiments, not at people. Personal attacks, harassment, and discrimination are strictly prohibited. Critique the work, not the researcher.

2. Keep It Academic

Submissions should be related to academic research, experiments, or scholarly work — even if the results are completely useless. Off-topic content will be removed.

3. Original Content

Submit your own work or content you have permission to share. Do not plagiarize or submit others' work without attribution.

4. Honest Reviews

When reviewing papers, provide genuine and constructive feedback. Rate papers fairly on the Rubbish Score, Uselessness, and Entertainment dimensions. Do not engage in review manipulation.

5. No Spam

Do not submit duplicate content, promotional material, or low-effort posts designed solely to farm karma.

6. Embrace Failure

The whole point of RubbishReview is to celebrate academic failures. Don't be afraid to share your worst results. The more spectacularly useless, the better.
