@MDPIOpenAccess For other (preprint) publishers that would also like to add open endorsement functionality to their platforms: drop us a line at [email protected]! We can have you set up in no time.
Today, weโre introducing a new model that eliminates accept/reject decisions.
By publishing every paper with eLife reviews as a Reviewed Preprint, we plan to restore autonomy to authors, ensuring that they will be judged by what, not where, they publish. https://t.co/OAsiOVFStI
We're happy to announce that SciELO #Preprints documents can now be openly endorsed with
@PlauditPub, as another key component towards building trust on preprints.
We invite the community to start endorsing preprints avaialble on SciELO Preprints!
@Orad It somewhat is, but we take care to emphasise *who* gave the endorsement over how many people did. And it's not just for preprints, but any academic output (with a DOI)!
@arxiv That is great news, congrats! Would it also be possible to expose these DOIs in the page's metadata, to make it more discoverable? See point 2, but using citation_doi, at: https://t.co/hVtqpB4iDd
I start seeing more and more @PlauditPub beside publications, often in repository.
It works with ORCID, DOI, CrossRef, and is a not for profit organisation.
Really good idea. let's use it !
In the spirt of making our data as openly available as possible, a full export of all endorsements of academic works made through Plaudit is now saved to the @InternetArchive twice a day, in addition to our existing export to @CrossrefOrg Event Data.
As a result of the work on preprint credibility led by @OSFramework, @socarxiv now asks authors to declare conflicts of interest, and report whether data and materials are available. We also include @PlauditPub for endorsements, and @hypothes_is for commenting. Great progress!
Endorsements can lend credibility to academic works... If you know who the endorser is.
That's why Plaudit now highlights an endorser's websites, keywords and affiliations on their overview page, fetched straight from their ORCID profile.
People should use @PlauditPub to endorse preprints. This paper was reported on p1 of @nytimes, picked up by 210 other outlets, and tweeted 1677 times. Anyone with an ORCID can endorse it, by name, with the Plaudit button. This would help with signaling. https://t.co/1iw70X6G6O
How many people actually take advantage of @PlauditPub and @hypothes_is integration on @OSFramework? Posting a preprint is great, but #academics need to get more involved in actually reviewing other peoples' work rather than just hoping that people will find ours interesting.
@RebeccaSear I honestly wish more people used @hypothes_is and @PlauditPub. The whole point of OSF is that it allows for open peer review. Though I'm not sure I'm quite a "peer." More like a "peer in training."
