I wonder if someone can make a graph showing proportion of preprints with 1 or more comment. Suspect it's a low %
Not all manuscripts are commented on in public. I've had emailed comments on mine. Still very useful.
Me too. Quite a few people reply to my comments and blog posts in private. That also needs to somehow be taken into account for an evidence
I am mildly skeptical that preprints "simply" reinforce status quo, based partly on my own experience. Lots of nuance to be explored!
I don't think they reinforce the status quo, but I do think they are biased towards preferential treatment of those who are high up within
the current system who do choose to use preprints. I think current biases are able to skew new ways of science.
I also notice specific patterns from specific high prestige groups using new technologies and vectors of communication. I also think that
for better or for worse trends on twitter and cliques on twitter don't represent my field more broadly and thus suspect it's the case in
other fields too. Some of the more vocal (RT'ed, etc.) people on twitter hold little sway in the field more generally, e.g., and on and on.
Twitter may be over capacity or experiencing a momentary hiccup. Try again or visit Twitter Status for more information.
