arXiv Paper Quality Assessment Guide: From Endorsement Mechanisms to a Practical Checklist

arXiv does not perform peer review, and roughly 2% of submissions are rejected. Quality judgment relies on external signals: top venue acceptance > institution + open-source reproduction > citation quality. Includes a 20-item practical checklist and a 2026 toolbox (PWC has shut down).

How Do People Read arXiv Papers? A Complete Guide to Methods and Tools

Reading papers is two problems stacked together: methodology (Keshav's three-pass method, 5-10 min / 1 hour / 4-5 hours) determines how to read, and tools (arXiv HTML, alphaXiv, NotebookLM, Connected Papers, Zotero) shorten the time for each pass. AI lowers the barrier to understanding; judging correctness always stays with the human.
