Hoi, I am not subscribed to the English language Wikipedia mailing list. I now had a look and think that this subject has a wider importance then only the en.wp. Now I am subscribed and am on "do not send". Thanks, GerardM

The magazine RNA biologyhttp://www.landesbioscience.com/journals/rnabiologyannounced that they are requiring researchers publishing research on families of RNA molecules in the journal to write a Wikipediahttp://wikipedia.org/article summarising their findings. The notion is that the paper in the magazine is original research and the Wikipedia article that will also be
peer
reviewed http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peer_review, will be a summary.
This was discussed on wikien-l under the subject 'Scientists told "publish in Wikipedia or else"'.
