  1. Are you in #EarthScience and interested in improving #AcademicPublishing options in your field? I am preparing a proposal for a PCI Eart Sciences, which would be part of peercommunityin.org/ family of journals. The digital infrastructure and brand are there, i have benefited as an author and as an editor from PCI Paleo and I can attest to the high quality and robustness of this platform and process. Being involved doesn’t actually require committing a lot of your time, as it takes years to establish a new journal. At this point it is more about launching it and making it visible, so I am primarily looking for mid-to senior-career collaborators who can help steer publications towards this venue. Especially if you’re in the field of #EnvironmentalScience, #Tectonics, #Petrology, #Mineralogy, #PhysicalGeography, #Hydrogeology, #EarthSystemScience and #Climate you are most welcome as these fields are underrepresented in my network. You can contribute by becoming an editor, pledging a submission, or helping recruit a BigName in your field (maybe that’s you?). Please have a look at peercommunityin.org/ or get in touch. #OpenAccess #OpenScience #geoscience #OpenPeerReview

  2. Does #OpenPeerReview (here #F1000Research ) give editors the right to euphemise reviews? See [1] + my submitted review [2].

    The editor wants to *completely remove* these 2 sentences:

    "This paper is not a research paper in physics/astronomy/cosmology. I will not review further revisions of this submitted text."

    I completely fail to see how the editor can justify this removal (+ I disagree with the other changes).

  3. #F1000Research aimed at #OpenPeerReview but is utterly failing. Sending a reminder just one week after a first request for a review (on version 2 of a text), and then saying nothing - effectively refusing to publish the review - for *six months* despite two reminders defeats the whole idea of open peer review.

    #Qeios seems to be doing the opposite - after publishing a review immediately, it clarifies by email that it's a *preprint* server.

    Any opinions on #Qeios [0][1] for #OpenPeerReview? Columbia Uni Mailman SchPublicHealth [2] and NYT [3] seem to take it seriously. I'm rather annoyed at #F1000Research , which pressured me for a fast report on v2 of a paper but after 5 months and several reminders hasn't published my review of v2 [4].

    Qeios sounds serious. Is it?

    #F1000Research is not going to get many reviewers for its #OpenPeerReview system if after two and a half months, a review of version 2 of a paper is still not published:

    Receipt of my second review was confirmed by email on 6 Feb 2023 ...

    #F1000 had a nice idea, but currently it doesn't seem to be working.

    #F1000Research [1] has an interesting approach to #OpenPeerReview [2], in which preprints are called "published"; justification: once "published", an article rejected by reviewers cannot be submitted to another journal (but may be revised+resubmitted). In principle, this encourages reviewers to reject papers constructively, treating the authors respectfully [3].
