Hello Wikipedians, Over the last few years, the WikiJournal User Group <https://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/WikiJournal_User_Group> has been building and testing a set of peer reviewed academic journals on a mediawiki platform. The main types of articles are:
- Existing Wikipedia articles submitted for external review and feedback (example <https://doi.org/10.15347/wjs/2018.006>) - From-scratch articles that, after review, are imported to Wikipedia ( example <https://doi.org/10.15347/wjm/2018.001>) - Original research articles that are not imported to Wikipedia (example <https://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/WikiJournal_of_Medicine/Acute_gastrointestinal_bleeding_from_a_chronic_cause:_a_teaching_case_report> ) *Proposal: WikiJournals as a new sister project <https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiJournal>* From a Wikipedian point of view, this is a complementary system to Featured article review, but bridging the gap with external experts <https://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/WikiJournal_User_Group/Peer_reviewers>, implementing established scholarly practices <https://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/WikiJournal_User_Group/Ethics_statement>, and generating citable, doi-linked publications <https://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/WikiJournal_User_Group/Publishing>. Please take a look and support/oppose/comment! All the best, Thomas Shafee ps, We are attempting to improve awareness within the existing wikimedia community, so feel free to share with others. _______________________________________________ Wikimedia-l mailing list, guidelines at: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Mailing_lists/Guidelines and https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wikimedia-l New messages to: Wikimedia-l@lists.wikimedia.org Unsubscribe: https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikimedia-l, <mailto:wikimedia-l-requ...@lists.wikimedia.org?subject=unsubscribe>
