In one of the papers, El-Maaref et al. [J. Elect. Spectrosc. Related Phen. 215 (2017) 22] have reported results for energy levels, oscillator strengths (f-values), radiative rates (A-values), collision strengths ($\Omega$), and excitation rates for transitions in S-like Mn~X. However, except for energy levels their results are restricted to only a few transitions and hence have limited application. Furthermore, most of their results have scope for improvement, but for $\Omega$ are not correct as these have been found to be overestimated by an order of magnitude. In this comment we discuss the discrepancies and deficiencies of their results and recommend that a fresh calculation should be performed for this ion.
