Re: Is Harvard's OA Policy pure bragging?
Indeed, Mr Graf's recurrent, outrageous, aggressive and above all useless comments are becoming very tiring on this Forum. Freedom of expression is a cherished value and should be preserved. However I am impressed with the moderator's patience: there are definitely some contributions that should be moderated.

As you know it's pure censorship what you are doing. As moderator you have to be neutral but it is clear that you are misusing your administrative power regarding postings you don't like. I am not professor.

Re: Is Harvard's OA Policy pure bragging?
Censorship is needed against insults. An accusation of bragging is insulting. This forum should remain a place where well educated people exchange their thoughts, not a boxing ring. B.

Perhaps this will help you: Instead of a rude and inflammatory subject header like Is Harvard's OA Policy pure bragging? you lose no substance if you say Is Harvard's OA Policy Succeeding? And in the body of the posting, you can state quite explicitly, that your question is based on the fact that one Harvard Professor has 123 articles deposited in Harvard's Institutional Repository, DASH, but none of them is OA full-text... I am not professor. Apologies for the misattribution. Stevan Harnad
