More important than the author's name and academic stature, is that the essential element of a scholarally posting is references and citations to support the posting so that a reader if so desired can judge for herself the verification and validation of the information provided.
Perhaps a posting should have an "ontological" network of references/citations to cited information in addition to the standard *pedia links.

The difference is that each article is written by an expert (invited or elected), each article is anonymously peer reviewed, and each article has a curator or editor. We had similar ideas for our own DCS-Wiki at http://www.vs.uni-kassel.de/systems What do you think of the idea Scholarpedia idea? It is currently mainly about neuroscience, dynamical systems and chaos theory, editor-in-chief is Eugene M. Izhikevich. Although many articles which are not yet completed or unfinished, it has already some interesting articles about Attractors, ABM, Bubbling Transition and Hyperchaos. They are written by Chaos Theory experts as Peter Ashwin, Otto E. Rössler, and Edward Ott.. The page about Hyperchaos contains a 9D model for a chaos-hyperchaos transition.. http://www.scholarpedia.org/article/Agent_Based_Modeling http://www.scholarpedia.org/article/Attractor http://www.scholarpedia.org/article/Basin_of_Attraction http://www.scholarpedia.org/article/Bubbling_Transition http://www.scholarpedia.org/article/Hyperchaos -J. ============================================================ FRIAM Applied Complexity Group listserv Meets Fridays 9a-11:30 at cafe at St. John's College lectures, archives, unsubscribe, maps at http://www.friam.org ============================================================ FRIAM Applied Complexity Group listserv Meets Fridays 9a-11:30 at cafe at St. John's College lectures, archives, unsubscribe, maps at http://www.friam.org
