A modest proposal: Rating biomedical open access editorial teams

Connotea Imports 2012-07-31

Summary:

"In my last blog post I promised to conjure up a way to compare the quality of the collective editors of a biomedical open access journal. Here is my recipe, a modest proposal for rating the editing team of a biomedical open access journal....1. Add up the H index calculations for all of the editors, then take the average....2.I then check every editor in the Budapest Open Access Initiative signatories and award a point for each editor that has publicly pledged at some point in their career that they would only publish their research results openly or self-archive research published in subscription journals....3. The final ingredient in my quality rating for open access journal editors is their regular contribution of editorials...."
