About this plugin
Reviewer 2 Academic Rejection Stamps & Verdict Widgets adds dry peer-review verdict cards to academic blogs, lab sites, research notebooks, and methods posts. It reads the room locally, reaches an unnecessary concern deterministically, and sends your content absolutely nowhere.
Use it as a block, shortcode, classic widget, or optional post-footer objection. The bundled matcher checks the current post title, tags, categories, and a capped portion of the post body against local dictionaries for fields such as Machine Learning, Statistics, Medicine, Economics, Psychology, Physics, Biology, Humanities, and Data Science.
Reviewer 2 then selects a bundled original phrase from the local phrase pack. There is no AI, no API call, no analytics, no remote asset, no tracking, no cookie, no visitor fingerprinting, and no external full-review callout unless the site owner explicitly enables one.
Key features:
- Gutenberg block: Reviewer 2 Verdict Card.
- Shortcode: [r2rs_verdict].
- Classic widget for a daily sidebar objection.
- Optional auto-append mode for single posts.
- Display styles: card, stamp, decision letter, reviewer comment, and conference review.
- Tone settings: Mild, Dry, and Brutal but civil.
- Local discipline matching with deterministic daily or permanent rotation.
- Optional metadata labels for detected field and Reviewer concern.
- Optional full-review callout that turns the short verdict card into a stronger visual gateway to the complete Reviewer 2 roast tool.
Shortcode examples:
- [r2rs_verdict] uses the site defaults.
- [r2rs_verdict style="decision-letter" tone="brutal-civil" labels="true"] overrides display style, tone, and labels for one card.
- [r2rs_verdict phrase_id="ml-benchmark-001"] pins a specific bundled phrase.
Privacy summary: Reviewer 2 reads only the post being displayed, locally, and immediately forgets the text. It does not analyze comments, visitors, unrelated posts, or external data.
External links: By default the frontend verdict card does not link out. Site owners can enable an optional full-review callout in the settings screen. com.
