🏴 3 Red Flags You Should Avoid When Writing a Research Paper

As a newbie, sometimes it’s easy to miss important parts of writing a research paper, which can then lead to serious consequences when your work is being reviewed.

1🚩 Choosing a topic just because it sounds “impressive”
Doing research on some astrophages or any other aliens is, of course, impressive, unless you can actually do it. It’s better to choose a more modest topic and provide an accurate, well-supported analysis of your content.

2🚩 Citing outdated sources
Don’t hesitate to double-check whether the source and its publication date are relevant to your topic. Discussing digital technologies or AI while relying on a 50-year-old source might be really risky.

3🚩 Skipping the literature review and jumping straight into writing
If you do this, it may become obvious that you have mostly used AI for your work. No additional comments needed.
