Signed open secondary reviews are certainly a complement to both
scientometric measures and primary (peer) reviews. All direct human
judgments are. But they are also countable, content-analyza
David,
I'm not sure that 'accuracy' is a relevant notion in relation to Faculty of
1000. The faculty-members offer their opinions on papers they deem of
interest. I quote from a response I sent earlier to one of Stevan Harnad's
contributions to this list: The point of Faculty of 1000 is that an op
The outer (non-ISI) circle:
Hope the [linked] review paper of mine is not (already) superfluous. The
bottom line is, of course, (Stevan's) OAI.

Tim,
Thanks for the very interesting and suggestive data.
At the risk of crossing threads, I wonder if this citation pattern is
peculiar to physics or, even more narrowly, to arXiv? As arXiv grows to
encompass more/all of physics, the volume of submissions should make the
"inbox of research" appr
Stevan,
Thanks for the clarification of your definitions and position on impact
measurements (in particular, for "The ISI journal-impact factor's vicious
circularity is part of the toll-access circle, which is precisely what
open-access and self-archiving are designed to free us from!"). I am glad
The semantic whip "what is scientometrics?" may lash, but doesn't quite

[...], Jan is not giving us an alternative to scientometric
quantification.", does that mean that he *does* think I *do*?
Good. I didn't even mean to.
