Influential papers

[edit]

We may need a set of criteria if we are to start the trend of listing publications like this. Better way would be to substitute 'influential' with 'noteworthy', and then actually assert, in prose, the noteworthiness (i.e. publication X was only possible through the PSB community and resulted in the founding of a new area of scientfic investigation that has ... etc). Without a criteria for 'influential', or a statement of noteworthiness, we will end up listing all the publications that came out of the PSB, in order to be NPOV!

Registration typically fills up early

[edit]

I removed that line. Sounds like advertising, and it was unreferenced. Early compared to what? Why is that important to an encyclopedia article? Perhaps a referenced comment about the level of competition? (what's the manuscript acceptance rate for this conference? What about the allumni return rate? how would that compare to related conferences?) JetheroTalk 00:56, 27 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Associated Awards

[edit]

I have proposed the following section which two editors call promotional/spam/advertising. I hope someone can make them suitable and add them to the page. I am working to find more references.ADP85xzVcQD (talk) 01:28, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

I will leave this here a few days. If I don't get any response or suggested edits, I will repost in good faith. There are primary citations. There are secondary citations. It is factual, not advertising, promotional, or spam. It is a science award given at this conference.ADP85xzVcQD (talk) 03:13, 18 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Every year at the conference, two awards are given to honor scientists for their work promoting data sharing and re-use.[1][2] Recipients of the Research Symbiont Award exemplify the principles of data sharing[3] while the recipients of the Research Parasite Award exemplify the principles of data reuse using secondary data.[4][2] Each year there are two recipients for each award--one early career scientist and one established scientist.[3][4]
