Hi Diptanshu.D,

I've (very) recently been in contact with the journal. There still are some divergent points between my protocol and wijoumed.

One major obstacle in a contribution from me to the "Wikiversity Journal of Medicine" is the field of the journal itself. But as discussed with Mickael, the JSL-related-bots may be useful to wijoumed too.

I'm wondering about making a wikimedian article based on the draft of one of my thesis chapter currently. But I don't know if it'd be an infringement of my contract and the consequences if any. I also still seek mentoring - tutoring and collaboration to develop the tools related to the protocol.

I may discuss this with a friend this evening.

We keep in touch --RP87 (talk) 05:20, 18 August 2016 (UTC)

Glad to read your response. Let us know if your friend mentioned the probable submission to be compliant to your contract. When is the actual thesis submission scheduled?

A proposal to move the journal to journal.wikimedia.org is under discussion. Could you tell whom to contact so that a separate subdomain could be created for the same?

Stay in touch. -Diptanshu^Talk 10:35, 18 August 2016 (UTC)

@Diptanshu.D:, Whaou, that's some water under the bridge. Sorry, I missed the notification and stumbled upon it just now.

Firste, there would be 'infringement' indeed, but with clauses that are not legal (and it took me quite some time to make it clear and decide what to do about it). When legal concerns were no longer a concern I made my "happy new year gift : https://github.com/RP87/these). Till now, no case was dropped on me ;-D. The work is still in french. So I could work on translating it. But to up-date my situation status, I'm no longer a PhD student. I haven't made my defense (my previous supervisors agreed to no pluri-disciplinary reviewing comity, proposed inadequate jury, and wanted the thesis to be confidential : manuscript and defense). In the mean time my computer broke down and thanks to new UEFI systems on the market I'm (currently) stuck with MS-windows 10 on a "hybrid tablet" : quite poorly workable.

To say the least, I've been quite exhausted by my surrounding academical community. After dropping the idea of finding an alternative suitable director with my current condition (an HDR Prof. in France), I decided to search independent economic resources.

I'm currently starting Low-Tech activities, times ahead will say what is possible. I'm eager to write again, but I must concentrate on growing then stabilizing a turnover with 'part-time' activities and aiming at making designs as Commons. I contracted with a cooperative (worker owned company). If the business is good enough I'll enter it as an associate.

About 'sub-domains', as I explained in different projects, cutting sciences apart is a problem in my field (that merges them). https://en.wikiversity.org/wiki/WikiJournal_of_Science would seem more appropriate in the sens of making Science and not taking it to pieces. But the content is quite not what I meant for JSL. Furthermore, the process described at https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/WikiJournal is not in line with the conclusion of my work (7th chapter of the thesis).

"It is also important to have the option of certain pages not being publicly accessible (i.e. only viewable by author and editors). This avoids violating press embargos for unpublished articles and allows re-submission to other journals if rejected from here."

I am against the "rejected go elsewhere" principle. I work the way "Not good enough yet, reason why we claim it's not satisfying the journal requirement is a,b,c but doing x, y and z would certainly bring new review process and validation."

As my thesis was about "evaluation" I also make a strong point on having readers decide the quality they want to read. For instance, as a researcher I'd be glad to work in the following way. Read an rss feed of articles validated by at least 4 peers (or combination 4 more validation than there are rejections), 'validated' reviews from peers from at least 3 different labs, with [selected key-words list] in abstract, articles coming from authors with reviewing / publishing ratio > 4 (and apply this minimum to my work).

I'll gladly discuss wiki-journals processes. But I have limited time and resources to put to this theme currently. If the 'WikiJournal_User_Group' has a clear goal and respective 'to do list' and for instance discuss the "Peer review of all articles before publication" pillar ( let say in a "before validation" approach, I'll follow it.

There are also some moves in the OA list : Open Access discussions <openaccess@lists.wikimedia.org>. To me all these converging effort need to bind forces. We'll se if wikimedian ground can lead to such a broad cooperation.
