My favorite part of metafiction, like this metareview, is when you watch a guy pretend to emphasize with a guy in a book he pretends to not understand.

At the beginning of this year, Active Matter researchers published a 'review of reviews' — yes, a meta-meta study. When your field grows so fast, you need a map of the maps. Worth bookmarking.

Like, what percentage of people could correctly answer "Which is more scientifically credible: a RCT study done by a credible institution, or a metareview of cohort studies?"
I think even a lot of people with relatively good general scientific understandings would get this wrong.

Hier ist ein methodisch guter Metareview. Eindeutig findet man viele Abweichungen zwischen MECFS und Kontrolle. Nur ein kohärentes Bild findet sich nicht.

The AC metareview "score" : "accept only if there's space" at XXXX was hilarious IMO. Nope, there's not going to be space, this is a reject for ACs who don't want to offend authors.

that lady's horribly argued video about fanfics is the prime example but i possibly find vibe-based yet personal videos still preferable to quick, 20-something pseudo-thought pieces of rigurgitated opinions that everyone has already heard. at least be original and do a discourse metareview

Was AC for one of the papers. Went to metareview and noticed that two reviews were basically paraphrases of each other (down to ordering of weaknesses) and LLM generated. Noticed the paper was also weirdly well written garbage. Then I investigated the deadbeat reviewers, realized they don't exist.

I'm currently dealing with a situation where 2/3 reviewers of a paper have submitted the same crappy, equivocating LLM-generated review (paraphrased) of a paper I'm trying to metareview. It's unambiguous.
Please don't do this. It's unfair to the authors, and it's not even useful as a review.
