Dear all, With regards to this really excellent initiative I am looking in to the various degrees in transparency of the peer review process. Has anybody examples at hand of editorials, where they give an overview of number of articles submitted, and ultimately accepted, and the time the whole cycle from submission to final publication actually took. So now and then I have seen this in journals, but can’t find any example right now.
I would be grateful for some hints.

Our organizations have collaborated in an effort to identify principles of transparency and best practice that set apart legitimate journals and publishers from non-legitimate ones and to clarify that these principles form part of the criteria on which membership applications will be evaluated. This is a work in progress and we welcome feedback on the general principles and the specific criteria.
