Annual Reviews

The article on Annual Reviews (publisher) reads as spam, and makes it appear differently credible. Guy (help!) 22:56, 25 June 2020 (UTC)

JzG, thanks for the note. Do you mean to say that AR does not appear like a credible organization in general, or is this an invitation to improve that article? As far as I know, AR does not plan on paying me to improve the article about the organization or any of its journal titles, but it could be in the works for a separate project.

Also just saw your reversion of my edits to Myc due to COI. To the best of my knowledge, I have followed all COI policies of Wikipedia. My edits included adding a citation to a section that previously lacked any citations. With your reversion, the Discovery section is once again uncited, Burkitt's lymphoma is once again incorrectly called "Burkitt lymphoma", and the section caps are wrong for "Relationship to Stem Cells". A similar model of paid editing has existed for some time with Wikipedia:WikiProject_Medicine/Cochrane on Wikipedia, with JenOttawa. Elysia (AR) (talk) 14:54, 26 June 2020 (UTC)

JzG Just chiming in as someone who works primarily on biology articles and isn't being paid by Annual Reviews (I was brought here by WAID's post at WT:MED). I can't speak to the organization broadly, but at least their molecular biology-related journals (Annual Reviews of Biochemistry, Cell & Developmental Biology, Genetics, Immunology, Microbiology, Plant Biology, and Virology) have excellent reputations in academia. I suppose they're probably the premier publisher of reviews in those fields (along with JBC and Nature Reviews X...)? I don't know of any third-party ranking assessing this kind of thing, so I'm just leaving my opinion here. You can take it or leave it. The Annual Reviews (publisher) page does currently stink. I'll add it to my todo list for a rainy day. Ajpolino (talk) 02:27, 20 July 2020 (UTC)

Elysia (AR), I mean that the article reads like an advert or PR copy. Guy (help!) 08:01, 20 July 2020 (UTC)

JzG, I'll pass that along to Annual Reviews. As I said, not sure that it's within the scope of what I was hired to do, but maybe they'll have me propose some changes on the talk page. Elysia (AR) (talk) 22:53, 21 July 2020 (UTC)

Disambiguation link in your userpage

Hello, I checked out your userpage and noticed that you linked to Annual Reviews which is a disambiguation page. I figure you probably want to link to Annual Reviews (publisher) (not quite sure if it's acceptable to edit people's userpages, so I'm just leaving you a note instead). BTW, I like your work on Convenience voting. Elliot321 (talk | contribs) 05:19, 7 August 2020 (UTC)

Elliot321, thanks for pointing that out! I feel a bit silly that of all the links to hit a dab, it was that one :) I have fixed it. And thank you for your note on convenience voting. It was definitely one of those articles I was a bit surprised didn't exist already. Elysia (AR) (talk) 14:12, 7 August 2020 (UTC)

doi-access=free

Have all Annual Review journals been converted to open-access? Is this permanent Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 19:38, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

Headbomb, hello! It's five at present with more to be rolled out next year. I don't think it's been externally announced yet, so I can't say how many/which ones. Current open-access journals are polisci, nuclear science, public health, cancer bio, & environment and resources. So the new volumes are published CC-BY. Back volumes of these journals have access control removed, so are doi-access free as far as Wikipedia is concerned, but obviously image reuse is not possible from the back volumes like it is from current volumes.

There are no plans to go back to gated access for these volumes. Of course, if the publishing model started leading to catastrophic revenue loss, Annual Reviews would probably revert to its previous publishing model. Like I said, not the plan, and they're opening up more journals next year. Elysia (AR) (talk) 19:56, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

Asking mostly because if the whole catalogue was open access (and open-access status won't retroactively change in the future), it would be a pretty easy thing to go through all AR-citations with bots and add |doi-access=free automatically. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 20:00, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

@Pintoch and Nemo bis: you may be interested in the above for an OAbot-run. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 20:02, 18 December 2020 (UTC)

This will be done automatically at the next run as long as Unpaywall knows about the OA status, which it currently doesn't. I've reported the issue but maybe Elysia can help by forwarding the Unpaywall FAQ to whoever handles metadata at AR. Nemo 11:22, 3 January 2021 (UTC)

My ticket has not been closed as resolved yet, but I think it's being worked on, because I see quite a few Annual Review edits by OAbot. Nemo 14:21, 6 January 2021 (UTC)

Nemo bis, I've been seeing quite a few on my watchlist as well--thank you! Elysia (AR) (talk) 15:43, 6 January 2021 (UTC)

Todd Klaenhammer

I saw you wrote the article on the late Todd R. Klaenhammer earlier this year prior to his death earlier this year. I knew Dr. Klaenhammer from being a member of the Institute of Food Technologists (I created that article in 2006 as a matter of disclosure.) and he was an advisor to a professor I had at Clemson University in the mid 1990s. I wanted to say you did a great job in creating that article. Chris (talk) 23:48, 27 May 2021 (UTC)

Miller17CU94, I'm no longer with Annual Reviews, but thank you for your kind words! I really enjoyed learning and writing about the prominent scientists whose careers intersected with AR at one point or another. Enwebb (talk) 22:12, 28 May 2021 (UTC)
