History of Peer Review
- Saloni Dattani explains that peer review wasn't a standard journal requirement until the 1970s.
- Early journals, like the Royal Society's Philosophical Transactions, initially published submissions without external review.
Paper Limits
- Limiting authors to a certain number of papers annually won't stop research output.
- Preprints and other informal publications already exist and are tracked, making paper limits ineffective.
F1000 Format
- The F1000 format publishes papers like preprints with post-publication review.
- Its high cost ($1350) creates a barrier to wider adoption, limiting its potential impact.
