@DynamicEcology @duffy_ma @algaebarnacle @tpoi @akcayerol @TimHVines we did one iteration of this process, getting the rev ID's & orig reviews from jrnl A and then asking jrnl B if they want the revised ms

I just finished my first review for @AxiosReview, and was sorry to learn that it will be my last. Hope the model gains new legs. https://t.co/szZLKtVdQ9

@engler_j @peeragescience Then they happily pay $2500 in OA fees...

@engler_j @peeragescience The revolution doesn't depend on the services existing, it depends on ppl using them. Ppl don't want a revolution

[Axios Review @AxiosReview]

@JanneSeppanen @engler_j We're sad, but after three years it was clear that our service wasn't of use to more than ~1% of the community

[Axios Review @AxiosReview]

@Pathh1 We thought it all made sense, clearly not enough researchers out there were moved to agree

[Axios Review @AxiosReview]

@vishuguttal @vvrobin part of the point is submitting to a jrnl that wants your paper, signif. raising chances of acceptance

[Axios Review @AxiosReview]

@DanielBolnick I'm self medicating with Ardbeg Uigeadail.

[Axios Review @AxiosReview]

@_mikoontz @biorxivpreprint Yep, we thought that would be pretty cool too.

[Axios Review @AxiosReview]

@svincenzi Sorry to hear that.

[Axios Review @AxiosReview]

@svincenzi Overall, only half of the accepted papers went back out for review. This varied very much by jrnl

[Axios Review @AxiosReview]

@MarleenCobben sadly not - it's been three years already...

[Axios Review @AxiosReview]

@gkalinkat yep, that's how it went, x10,000. I think most academics are actually quite happy with the current #peerreview system

[Axios Review @AxiosReview]

@gkalinkat About 20 more per month, or 1% of the total submitted in ecol & evol. It's sadly a case of use it or lose it.

[Axios Review @AxiosReview]

@gkalinkat Just not enough people using us to make it sustainable.

[Axios Review @AxiosReview]

We're sad (devastated, actually) to announce that @AxiosReview will stop taking new submissions as of 1st March.

[Gregor Kalinkat @[email protected] @gkalinkat]

@AxiosReview @biorxivpreprint sounds great. maybe we try this with one of our forthcoming mss.

[Axios Review @AxiosReview]

@gkalinkat that's right - once you've uploaded to @biorxivpreprint, all the metadata and files are passed to @AxiosReview
