# R&R Rebuttal & Response Letter (rfs-rebuttal)
## When to trigger
- An RFS decision letter arrives with an editor letter and referee reports
- You have a revise-and-resubmit (or a "reject and resubmit") and must respond
- You need to plan which comments to fully address, partially address, or push back on
> Revise the manuscript first (or in parallel). Do not draft the response letter around changes you have not actually made.
## RFS revision reality
RFS runs a **demanding multi-round review** under a handling Editor (within the editor pool led by Executive Editor Tarun Ramadorai). An R&R is an opportunity, not an acceptance: the editor and referees expect substantive responses, new analysis where warranted, and a manuscript that is visibly better. The response letter is judged as carefully as the paper.
