Looks interesting and I was just about to compile a list but this is old-school out-of-date dead-tree ;-) They should have set up a Wiki or try to collect Wikipedia articles instead.
Well, we can try to submit some reviewed and cleaned Wikipedia articles. They want articles by idividuals that are original and not submitted for publication or published elsewhere but this is dull: we're all standing on the shoulders of giants. Instead of blaming them more for their traditional model of publication we can just try to submit something that has been collaboratively created und licensed under a open content license.

This strikes upon an interesting tension, I think.
If it's a "publishing opportunity for someone" then we're talking about the traditional publishing model... being a Wikipedia scholar can be aggravating. On the one hand wanting to contribute and foster growth in the wiki way, on the other hand needing to obtain the resquisite credibility to operate in academia--get funding, jobs, etc, in order to continue contributing!
Incidentally, I get publisher "spam" all the time. "Dear researcher, you have been selected to submit a paper to..." This one may not be spam, but it does exist, so it's not out of the question that the URL could have been flagged correctly.
I guarantee that the author will have to sign a legal form explicitly conferring ownership of the work in the case of acceptance for publication.
This is EXACTLY why I love wiki so much. :-) BECAUSE it makes no sense in the traditional publishing world.
