New article requests[edit]Please add requests for new articles here, including missing articles updated by the bot below in the "Pages needing attention" section. The goal is to have no broken links from articles on sustainability, environment, or ecology. This list is indiscriminate.

I think I posted this on an archived discussion and will look for a better place to post--Guy vandegrift (talk)09:49, 14 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]

According tothis survey, the prime disincentive against making scholarly contributions to Wikipedia is that it will not advance careers.Wikiversity:First Journal of Science will be a peer-reviewed journal that should alleviate this problem for recent college graduates who are not expected to have published in the established scholarly journals.
The word "First" in the title is intended to suggest that we need more journals like this. TheWikiversity:First Journal of Science was patterned after theWikiversity Journal of Medicine, but will have a somewhat more informal flavor, consistent with this new journal's intent to focus on teaching at the undergraduate college level.Wikiversity:First Journal of Science will attribute with bylines that list usernames only, in contrast with the use of real names by theWikiversity Journal of Medicine
Another unique feature ofWikiversity:First Journal of Science is that edited versions of Wikipedia articles are welcome, and are presented as Wikipedia articles on the Wikiversity journal via permalinks to the history of Wikipedia articles. This is currently accomplished in a rather awkward fashion, by moving the Wikipedia article into the editor's user space, and after proper attribution, deleting all that extraneous prose that Wikipedia articles tend to acquire. An example of this shown in one of the three "pseudo-articles" that were used to create amockup issue. Of the three "pseudo-articles" in this mockup, I consider only one to be suitable for publication. It is Wikipedia'sIntroduction to quantum mechanics. Note how the logo was inserted into the "pseudo-accepted" version without permission of the article's current editors. In other words, all of Wikipedia's 5 million articles are candidates for publication in this journal, and in a manner of speaking, have already effectively submitted their manuscripts toWikiversity:First Journal of Science for review--Guy vandegrift (talk)05:24, 14 January 2016 (UTC)[reply]
