Manuscripts under review are confidential, so no paper, author or outcome is named here. Journals shown with a dash were refereed through publisher systems that record one entry per review round, which would overstate the count.

Edited books and guest editorships

Edited books and special issues curated as guest editor are one-time appointments, separate from a standing seat on a board. They have their own page.
