Dario, what's the timeframe for writing reviews so they can get into the signpost in time. 25th?

As usual, short notes and one-paragraph reviews are most welcome. Instead of contacting past contributors only, this month we're experimenting with a public call for reviews cross-posted to analytics-l and wiki-research-l. if you have any question about the format or process feel free to get in touch off-list.

Thanks, Dario, Tilman! I was wondering whether it would be helpful to add reviewer names/usernames to individual signpost reviews. I was struck while reading a review of a paper on Signpost recently that I felt like the reviewer was inserting some very opinionated statements about the article rather than the regular summaries. While I don't think that this is a problem necessarily (although I wish that they were a bit more informed about the topic and social science research in general), I do think it can be problematic to have these comments unattributed. Would be interested to hear what others think... Best, Heather.

Great idea Heather, I will add my name to my review. Do you know any other review sites that aggregate in a wiki way that we could emulate?

Subject: Re: [Wiki-research-l] Upcoming research newsletter: new papers open for review Hi Heather, that's a cool idea, and we have actually been considering something like this already. While the names of the reviewers are prominently displayed in the byline on top (and also, many readers of the Signpost and the newsletter are of course experienced in reading version histories), showing them next to each review might be make attribution easier. We just haven't found the time to implement it yet, like with many other things for the newsletter. You are welcome to figure out a suitable format and add these attributions in the upcoming issue, let's follow up offlist if more information is needed.
