    Comments: I agree, the peer review process needs to be fixed! Also it seems that some reviewers pre-judge a submitted article just by looking at the authors name and /or which lab they belong to. The reviewer should not be able to see who wrote the article!!!

    Comments: An interesting idea that, if efficiently managed, could equilibrate work-load. But because young scientists will have done few or no reviewers prior to submitting their first few papers, newcomers can not be penalized by the process; i.e., by requiring a co-author with credits in order to submit when newly established.

    Name: Beatrix Beisner on Jul 29, 2010
    Comments: Interesting idea that is worth discussing. My biggest worry is how to deal with overly superficial reviews. Too easy to whip a quick one off and get credits.

    Comments: I fully support the idea proposed by Fox and Petchey, and sincerely hope that as a collective we ecologists can impart a restructuring of the review system.

    Name: Simon Chamaillé-Jammes on Jul 30, 2010
    Comments: Worth discussing the idea. But I believe there would be less problems if we were giving credit (real credit, not PubCreds) for (hopefully good) reviews (i.e. vs. publications). I suggest a 'Review your reviewer' website editable by editors but viewable by all - number of reviews requested, number accepted, quality of the review. Humm...who wants to be publicly a crappy reviewer?

    Name: Gerlinde De Deyn on Jul 30, 2010
    Comments: Great initiative! I hope that this discussion will also make authors behave more responsible with respect to their role as referees even before a payment system is installed. Posting this petition widely (e.g. on society websites, conferences, ...) may perhaps help to increase peer pressure.

    Comments: A formal system of credit and debit for reviewing is long overdue, and now is possible to implement. It will need to evolve and be fine tuned as we learn what works and what does not, but that is not reason to delay.

    Name: Richard Vogt on Aug 3, 2010
    Comments: I like this idea, but share the concern about early-career scientists not being asked as often to give reviews. Perhaps there could be some sort of forum where the opportunity to review could be solicited, which editors could use as a resource to find new reviewers?

    Comments: I see this system as a useful way to both boost reviewing within the publication system and as a way to get recognition for the often considerable reviewing & editing tasks many academics do.

    Name: Steven Vamosi on Aug 4, 2010
    Comments: I agree that it's time to start a serious discussion about the current state of the peer review system. PubCreds is an interesting proposal, and I do not think the issue of junior academics earning currency is as serious as some seem to indicate. I worry a little about more folks writing quick/shallow reviews simply to earn points, but that should not be an insurmountable issue. Looking forward to seeing how this all plays out!
