Got it. Thanks for clarifying!
We are posting this on Monday. But I think we should be able to add the
video later if you don't have it ready by then.

have
actually been written by scholars for that purpose and published
in a peer-reviewed journal.
Were the articles in the subset written by scholars on Wikipedia and then
published in a peer-review journal like the article on Dengue fever? Or
did
the scholars publish scholarship in a
peer-reviewed open access journal
in
order for the papers to be incorporated in
Wikipedia articles? I think
it is
the former, but just wanted to make sure that I
got it right.
It's more of the latter - the articles are actually drafted and
reviewed on a separate MediaWiki instance (e.g.
http://topicpages.ploscompbiol.org/wiki/Multi-state_modeling_of_biomolecules
), then published in the journal, then on Wikipedia. For more details
on that, see

.
When precisely do you intend to post the piece? We're working on a video
about
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Open_Access/Signalling_…
that should be ready in the next few days and may be a good fit for your
post.
