Submit your metascience preprint and we will get it reviewed, and you can then take those reviews to journals, or just use them to improve your work prior to submitting to a journal.

Disappointing decision by Clarivate to use its status to attempt to squash innovation in science publishing.

I was asked to comment on behalf of ASAPbio for a journalist's write-up of the situation, but my quote got cut. I'll share it here instead (below).

We're getting ready to launch MetaROR and make peer review faster, more transparent, and more efficient 💪

Join us for the official launch of MetaROR, a new open platform for reviewing and sharing metaresearch operating with an innovative publish-review-curate model.

The ancient Q of paying for #PeerReview resurfaced on 💙☁️, most recently with the antitrust lawsuit against publishers, & so I thought is a good moment to re-vamp my (X)🧵 on the 450 Movement. Before you start: read the post from James Heathers #AcademicSky 1/

I do peer review and I want you to pay me four hundred and fifty dollars. I’ll even say please.

JEDI is an online community for journal editors across the social sciences focused on increasing open science policies, practices, and procedures at journals.

Here's our new preprint introducing @dpjedi.org and summarising some data from the first two years!

An #EditorialQuestion: how do you deal w/ a senior author who insist on insulting editorial staff in every email to the journal for no reason (and in this case, I literally mean no reason) while keeping all their student co-authors in cc #OverlyDisgruntledEditor #ScientificPublishing #AcademicSky 1/

Some cool new tools in here for making retractions more transparent! #ScientificPublishing
Depressing: Academic papers that have been retracted because they're wrong keep getting cited. Our scientific record is contaminated

Inspiring: @gcabanac.cpesr.fr makes amazing software tools to detect both the fraudulent papers and the work that relies on them 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Journal fees for open access are becoming obscene. But what are we, scientists, paying for? I made a simple plot with journals in my research area(s). Clearly, we are paying for prestige: a shockingly clean correlation between the impact factor and journal fees

Many interesting points about our current #AcademicPublishing system in this thread!
Researchers should stop paying to publish their papers. Tom Morgan and I wrote a short piece about it. (1) osf.io/preprints/os...

Didn't know this paper...

>300 people refereed the same econ paper, with author listed as

1. an early career scholar
2. anonymous
3. a Nobel laureate (from same university as 1)

Recommendations:
65% reject for early career scholar,
23% reject for Nobel laureate

After asking the government (or private foundations) to pay for the costs of doing research, we conduct the research and write papers about it that our peers review for free, then we donate those papers to for-profit companies that sell them back to us at high prices. This is considered normal.
ok i have another quote tweet prompt. what's something, big or small, related to your job or hobby, that most people don't know that you would like to have them know? it can be a concept, a piece of history, some vocabulary, or something else.

Kudos to #Japan for adopting a national #OpenAccess policy, for requiring OA through #repositories rather than #journals#GreenOA rather than #GoldOA — and for funding to upgrade and standardize the country's institutional repositories.
