Moderation Policy: Who Select the Articles?
21 Jan, 2006 10:55 am
The goal is to let the scientific community drive and moderate the discussions by itself in a peer review like system.
Having as its goal to become a trustworthy news source, Scitizen has established a peer review like moderation system:
- Every submission to the site is sent to the subject’s reviewers and held for a 3 working day period. The reviewers are working scientists in the field of research related to the subject.
- The reviewers can write anonymous comments on the article, accept it or reject it.
- After 3 days, if half or more of the reviewers have accepted the publication, the article is posted on the homepage and the discussion starts.
This policy is being tested and may change in the next months. Check this section for updates!
