How long does a review take?

[Hannah047]

How long does the review of an new article take? I'm sure the answer to that question is within one of the instructions on this site. I just don't know where it is.

Will someone please help me with the answer?
Thanks,
Hannah

There's no answer to this as it just depends on the queue of submissions and the number of editors available. Private and public request articles are usually dealt with first so sometimes the spec articles have to wait awhile.

It is a public request.
Thanks for replying.
