Changes to reviewer volunteering requirement and incentives in May 2025 cycle (EMNLP 2025) TLDR:

πŸ“’ ARR author reminder
If you submit a paper to an ARR cycle, you are required to review if qualified, unless you have an approved exemption. This helps keep the peer-review process sustainable. Thanks!

Why some announce "arxiv" as their new publication with "I'm thrilled to announce our paper is published on arxiv" and there is no linked peer-reviewed venue. Anyone can put anything on arxiv. It's usually a placeholder, and unless it goes through a proper peer review, it should be treated that way.
