Dec 16, 2021 at 8:35 comment added cheersmate Maybe there are some other things you can comment on? Did the paper inspire you in any way, e.g., is there any additional analysis that would be nice (you don't need to suggest that the authors need to do it in this paper, just think about and discuss it)? Are there any additional connections to other work that you know that you could point out (maybe in your personal niche of expertise)? Those would be useful for the authors even if you start the review "I'm happy to recommend acceptance as is".

Dec 15, 2021 at 2:45 comment added Greg Martin If there are N human beings who review papers, and each one reviews an average of n papers, and N is much bigger than n (which seems plausible), then for about N/n people (a lot of people) the first paper they review will be the best one they review!

Dec 14, 2021 at 17:44 comment added riverwastaken @Wrzlprmft thanks for the link, however most answers seem to say something along the lines of: its not just about the level of English which is neither the OPs or my point...
Dec 14, 2021 at 17:34 comment added Wrzlprmft Related: I peer reviewed a paper and found it to be sound - technically and language-wise. How should I write the review report?
