Is there a simplified version of the CRediT (https://credit.niso.org/) taxonomy of contributor roles out there? I love the idea but never got why anyone would care about about the four different types of manager or whether someone "curated" or "collected" the data used in a paper.

@joeroe recently used the Merit system, which adds more granularity since every author can be called directly in the Methods section with initials so that everyone knows really who did what. Found it nice.

Interesting read on and a criminal world that pays editors to accept papers, people paying for papers and even downright bribing!
Worrying trends!

Wouldn't call PCI Archaeology a niche/subject-specific since we accept alll archaeology, from all regions and periods of the world. Open peer-review encompass many organizations (see Ross-Hellauer 2017). We offer the possibility to remain anonymous because we know some people need that, and also to allow stronger critique wich can be hard to make with your name. We propose both, but the review is open, so that everyone can read.

@furqanshah @lavergnetho @RonaldVisser @academicchatter @EuroGeosciences
In every PCI (17 exist) there are tens or hundreds of editors so that they are not overwhelmed, they know the field of the paper, and they know potential reviewers. Also, reviewers are more encline to accept because they don't give their time for free to commercial publishers.

PCI_Archaeology,
@PCI_Archaeology@archaeo.social avatar

@furqanshah @lavergnetho @RonaldVisser @academicchatter @EuroGeosciences and editors put their name on the recommendation (final editorial decision) and even write why they recommend the paper. Open code and open data is also mandate

@aap_saaorg Could you tell me if AAP is open to submissions that have been through @PCI_Archaeology's open peer review? I don't see it on the list of PCI-friendly journals (https://archaeo.peercommunityin.org/PCIArchaeology/about/pci_friendly_journals).

My co-authors and I would love to submit something to AAP, but we'd also really like to go the open peer review route. It's a conundrum!

@joeroe @aap_saaorg I must say I would also love to know the answer. I think @benmarwick already asked, if I'm not mistaking?

For French colleagues (or not): @PeerCommunityIn is now interoperable with @hal_fr ! You can put your preprint on HAL, and at the end of the form, you can directly submit to @PCI_Archaeology
for example! Can't wait to try this new system! More info here:

Genuine question to archaeologists out there, following discussion with @mrundkvist: is double-blind peer review a thing? I personally never went through it in any journal I published in so far... So is it related to certain sub-fields, or some national traditions or other reason?

PCI_Archaeology,
@PCI_Archaeology@archaeo.social avatar

@mrundkvist also: do you think it is effective at preventing the reviewers to identify the authors? I would imagine that in archaeology, the name of the authors or their team is immediately identified by the scope of the article (the period/region, the site studied, the methods, the drawings etc.)

PCI_Archaeology,
@PCI_Archaeology@archaeo.social avatar

We don't publish in the same English-language journals apparently! 🤔😁

PCI_Archaeology,
@PCI_Archaeology@archaeo.social avatar

@mrundkvist in more than 100 submissions so far, only one asked for double-blind. Apparently researchers are not really wanting to be anonymous to the reviewers (or maybe it is not very visible on our Website...).

Gratifying discovery: the heavily theoretical most recent paper on the issue I'm writing about is based on a tiny dataset. So I will be able to contribute usefully.

PCI_Archaeology,
@PCI_Archaeology@archaeo.social avatar

@mrundkvist the unique preprint server I know which officially welcome archaeology is SocArXiv but OSF Preprints or Zenodo accept whatever discipline.

PCI_Archaeology,
@PCI_Archaeology@archaeo.social avatar

@mrundkvist non I cannot say it's standard at all. aDNA specialists use BioRxiv quite often but the rest of the discipline does not do that, unfortunately. But it helps you control the date of access to your work by the community, it ensures a date and doi for your work so cannot be scooped, and 90% of journals accept a submission already preprinted. And you can come have a free thorough evaluation in our system. 💯 Win-win!

PCI_Archaeology,
@PCI_Archaeology@archaeo.social avatar

@mrundkvist that's for sure

PCI_Archaeology,
@PCI_Archaeology@archaeo.social avatar

@mrundkvist most journals I know don't do double blind, and like for the speed of publication, I don't think double blind is useful in archaeology. I think any reviewer know the team of researchers from the introduction if not from the title... We also propose double blind peer review if wanted by authors, but here you must put the preprint on a Google drive server for example without visible name.

PCI_Archaeology,
@PCI_Archaeology@archaeo.social avatar

@mrundkvist as for speed it can be very useful for post docs for example not to wait 2 years for a chapter to come out, or a paper stuck in a journal for 18 months, when they look for new opportunities.
