Once it is published, can't it just go to Wikisource? Or would it have to be CC-By or something like that. If so, Wikisource would still be the best suited for that, we would just have to put it in a journal namespace or something along that line.

We need a Wikijournal project, where scientists can do all the functions of a journal without any prior approval-- collectively form groups, review, and publish.

The only question is-- how can WM help ignite this revolution waiting to happen? If we're really lucky, can we ourselves be the home to the successor of the for-profit journal system.
Academic peer-review is a rather un-wiki process. Possibly a first step is encouraging arXiv-like preprint archives for other fields - arXiv has become pretty much *the* first place to stake out your credit in physics.
