Where can I access American Mathematical Monthly problems given an index?
Unfortunately, I don't think there's any particularly easy way to find a specific problem given its index number, but let me summarize some of the comments (and add some of my own) in a community wiki …

Which journals publish experimental results in pure maths?
The Journal of Experimental Mathematics was launched in June 2023. It is a Diamond Open Access journal, meaning there are no charges to authors nor readers. I don't know the full story, but looking at …

Do empirical studies have a place in contemporary mathematics research?
coudy's answer, pointing you to the Experimental Mathematics, is the right answer, and there are already other MO questions about experimental mathematics that are relevant, but I can't resist giving …

Math papers where the only issue is that someone else could've done it but didn't
Let me take the liberty of rephrasing the question slightly. Does the mathematical community put undue emphasis on accomplishing something "difficult," and thereby undervalue certain highly original t …

The editor wrote the paper for me
[Comments combined into a community wiki answer.]
Copyright is the wrong word in this context; the correct word is authorship. A reasonable course of action is to propose to the editor that you and h …

Publishing papers that became classics before they were submitted
There are countless examples, especially if one includes the publication of the Nachlass of a deceased mathematician. Let me mention just one example that I have been looking forward to.

Two questions about combinatorics journals
The closest thing to an official account of why JCT split into JCTA and JCTB may be found in Edwin F. Beschler's article Gian-Carlo Rota and the Founding of the Journal of Combinatorial Theory, J. Com …

How to write computer-assisted mathematics well?
In theory, good writing is good writing. Writing (or for that matter, doing) computer-assisted mathematics well is, at bottom, not different from writing (or doing) any kind of mathematics well.

Papers with a large number of coauthors
This is a matter of opinion, but whatever the policy is, it should be consistently applied. If D.H.J. Polymath is allowed to post papers without listing the members, then other collaborations should …

Extent of “unscientific”, and of wrong, papers in research mathematics
As Kevin Buzzard himself admits in his answer, he somewhat exaggerated his point for effect.
However, I'd submit that if you were unsettled by his talk, then that's a good thing. I don't think that …

Obsessive editing/revising of math papers
I don't think that you should be asking about what is "normal." You should instead be asking whether your revisions are improving your paper. If your revisions are improving your paper then it's goo …
