最近投一篇SCI文章，投稿系统要求回答下面的问题：
Has the paper previously been submitted for possible publication in *** or elsewhere and was it subsequently rejected or withdrawn? Please answer YES or NO. If YES then please provide details and, if known, who the previous reviewers were. If previously submitted to ***, then please provide details including reference number and handling editor, specifically whether you have made the improvements to the manuscript that were suggested following any earlier rejection.
我这篇稿子此前投过影响因子更高的刊物被拒，说内容不适合他们，只有一个专家评审意见，也难以让人信服，能猜到是谁但也不确定。
这种情况下，本次投稿系统要求回答的这个问题，我可否直接回答No？ 因为我怕影响到本次投稿的正常送审。还是应该如实回答？求助各位有经验的高手给点建议，感谢！ 返回小木虫查看更多
