that is more or less the PLoS One or Scientific Reports model, right? you pay the fee, it gets peer reviewed for correctness but not impact, and then published

- rgejman 9y agoYes to PLoS One. I think Scientific Reports (as a NPG journal) still tries to be somewhat selective, but I'm not sure. My proposal is a bit different because it establishes a preliminary and public review process that is separate from "publication." You cannot take your PLoS One article and now get it published at Nature or Science. But you could do that if your paper was "reviewed" at bioRxiv, meaningfully improved and corrected, and then submitted for publication elsewhere.
