# Revision & Rebuttal (phg-rebuttal)
A major revision at PiHG is a **scoped invitation**, not a rejection. The response letter is read alongside
the revised essay by the **editor** and the **referees** — usually senior figures in your sub-field. You
win by addressing every point, respectfully and concretely, and by **strengthening the intervention and
the command of the literature**, not by patching wording. Because PiHG is a review journal, most fixes are
**argumentative and bibliographic**, not new data.
## When to trigger
- A decision letter arrived: minor revision, major revision (R&R), or reject-with-encouragement
- Referees disagree, or one challenges the coverage, the attribution, or the novelty of the intervention
- You need to decide what to concede, what to push back on, and how to show the changes
