- YeGoblynQueenne 6y agoOh, sorry. My bad and thanks for posting the link to the abstract.
- Ninjaneered 6y agoCan you explain why this is preferred? Is it to ensure everyone knows where it comes from (journal or preprint)?
- JadeNB 6y agoFor me, at least two reasons: 1. As you say, to see more information about where the paper comes from. 2. It's easy to get from the abstract page to the PDF, but not vice versa. Personally, I also think it's good for people to get into the habit of linking to a text description of data-heavy resources rather than directly to the resources. PDFs aren't that data-heavy, but there are plenty of other things that are that could do with a text landing page, and I think it's good to get in that habit.
- Ninjaneered 6y agoMakes sense, thanks!
