Agreed that it could be useful to have a "go to" project to rally around.
Arxiv.org is very successful for pre-prints, at least in some fields like computer science. Maybe a modern "journal" offering review and editing could be built on top of that? It would utilize open reviews instead of the traditional anonymous private reviews. Once a certain bar has been reached with reviews, the paper can be nominated for appearing in a journal, which editors can decide on.
- Vinnl 8y agoThe usual parlance for that is an "overlay journal", and there are quite a few of those now. Many of them use Scholastica [1]. [1] https://scholasticahq.com/ https://scholasticahq.com/
- mindcrime 8y agoYep. Discrete Analysis is perhaps one of the best known of those. https://gowers.wordpress.com/2015/09/10/discrete-analysis-an-arxiv-overlay-journal/ https://gowers.wordpress.com/2015/09/10/discrete-analysis-an... https://discreteanalysisjournal.com/ https://discreteanalysisjournal.com/
