[WikiEN-l] Using external peer review for articles with COI aura

[Mathias Schindler]

Hi,

I need your feedback about a scenario that could be useful especially
for articles with lots of people prevented from editing it because auf
conflicts of interests. Assuming that employees from a company would
have a look at all the articles about them, their products, their
projects,  biographical articles about their board members and so on,
would it make sense to put all these collected comments to a single
site accessible to Wikipedians?

En.wp has sites such as
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:External_peer_review where
(mostly journalistic / scientific) statements about wikipedia articles
are collected. When Nature released the list of feedback on 42
articles, the result was amazing. Currently, External peer review has
nothing to do with COI, of course.
