Mentions and Inbox
Collaborate with team members using @mentions and track notifications in your inbox.
@Mentions in Discussions
Tag team members in paper discussions to notify them and request their attention. Type @ followed by a name or email to see a dropdown of available users. As you type, a dropdown appears with matching users - click to select or continue typing.
You can mention multiple users in a single comment. Each mentioned user receives an email notification with the comment content and a link to the discussion.
Paper Discussions
Collaborate with your team on paper-specific discussions. Navigate to a paper's detail page and click the "Discussion" tab to view and post comments. Write your comment in the text box and click "Post Comment" - use @mentions to notify specific team members.
Click "Reply" on any comment to create a threaded response. You can edit or delete your own comments, and edited comments show an "edited" indicator.
Inbox
View all your @mentions in one centralized location. Click the "Inbox" link in the navigation bar - an unread count badge shows how many new mentions you have. See all comments where you were mentioned, with paper context and who mentioned you.
Toggle between "All" and "Unread" to focus on new mentions. Click "Mark as Read" on individual mentions or "Mark All as Read" to clear your inbox. Click "View Discussion" to jump directly to the paper discussion where you were mentioned.
Best Practices
Be Specific: When mentioning someone, clearly state what you need from them
Check Regularly: Review your inbox daily to stay on top of team communications
Use Threads: Reply to existing comments instead of creating new top-level comments
