Use of the "quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog" pangram in academic papers.

In the English language, when a sentence contains all letters of the alphabet, such as "The/A quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog", this is known as a pangram. Curiously, despite its odd meaning, this fox-dog pangram has found practical usage in some applications, mainly in text typography related to computer graphics, in linguistics, as a writing tutorial, or for testing computer keyboards. Even more curiously, it has been detected as a residual of template text in some academic papers. This unique linguistic curiosity was examined by screening Scopus and Web of Science, as well as Google Scholar from 2019–2023, to appreciate its practical use, as well as to assess whether there were any cases of residual template text, the main target of this exercise. In the latter case, this letter advocates for the removal of this residual text, in the form of a literary correction. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
