Thanks, Dario, Tilman!

I was wondering whether it would be helpful to add reviewer names/usernames
to individual signpost reviews. I was struck while reading a review of a
paper on Signpost recently that I felt like the reviewer was inserting some
very opinionated statements about the article rather than the regular
summaries. While I don't think that this is a problem necessarily (although
I wish that they were a bit more informed about the topic and social
science research in general), I do think it can be problematic to have
these comments unattributed. Would be interested to hear what others
think...

Best,
Heather.
