The package formerly known as papercheck has changed its name to metacheck! We're checking more than just papers, with functions to assess OSF projects, github repos, and AsPredicted pre-registrations, with more being developed all the time.

My thoughts are with everyone who continue to be affected by the government shutdown.
And I am still blocked.

My standup blocker today was:

arXiv will no longer accept review articles and position papers unless they have been accepted at a journal or a conference and complete successful peer review.
This is due to being overwhelmed by a hundreds of AI generated papers a month.
Yet another open submission process killed by LLMs.

AI-written surveys are definitely a problem, but it feels so backwards for arXiv PREprints to require peer review first. Not sure what the solution is.
If a position paper is accepted at a decent venue (ICML, NeurIPS, ACM Computing Surveys, etc.), we will gladly release it on arXiv.

Really inspired by the energy at the @openrxiv.bsky.social Meeting last week — feels like a turning point for preprints and open research. 🌌
Excited to see how this community is connecting data, code, and narrative into something more open, interactive, and alive. 🚀

in my post-academic era i have become extremely scathing of the way academia considers papers to the primary outcome of intellectual work, and refuses to give credit to academics who write software or build other tooling. in industry we very rarely read your papers; but we always use your software

Updated the interactive demo to include the "anchor-center" value. It's a special value different from "center" and is probably the one you will be using the most.
