We explore the annotation of reflexives in Universal Dependencies (UD) treebanks (Nivre et al., 2018), with a stronger focus on Slavic languages. We will show a number of examples where reflexive markers (in particular reflexive clitics) are used as true (argumental) reflexives, reciprocal arguments, passive/middle/impersonal markers etc.; we will confront the UD guidelines for the individual phenomena with the current state of the data. Improvements will be proposed, sometimes of the guidelines, but mostly of the annotation
