Thank you so much. The website is very clear – and welcoming to both readers and authors. I have completed my review and sent the application to the next level.

 

All best to you,

Dear Mathieu,

 

Have you made any progress on updating the Journal of Peer Production website to provide the information that DOAJ requires for inclusion in the directory? Please let me know by September 27 if you will be able to make these changes, or if you would like to withdraw your journal for inclusion in DOAJ.

 

Sincerely,

 

Rhonda

Dear Dr. O’Neil,

 

I am one of the volunteer Associate Editors at Directory of Open Access Journals (DOAJ). I am currently processing your application for Journal of Peer Production to be included in DOAJ.

 

Your application states that you do not have article processing charges (APCs) or article submission charges. However, the link you gave where this information can be found does not mention APCs or submission charges. In order to be included in DOAJ, you must explicitly state that you do not have such charges.

 

One of the requirements for entry into DOAJ is that your journal website must include an open access statement. The link provided on the application, http://peerproduction.net/, does not have a statement. I would like to suggest that you take a look at some of the journals that are currently in DOAJ. Film Criticism has a brief, clear statement about open access that also describes how readers can use the content: http://www.filmcriticismjournal.org/about.html Using such a statement would also fulfill another requirements for inclusion in DOAJ: stating your license or use terms for the reader.

Film Criticism is a peer-reviewed, online publication whose aim is to bring together scholarship in the field of cinema and media studies in order to present the ...

 

peerproduction.net

Welcome to the Journal of Peer Production. The Journal of Peer Production seeks high-quality contributions from researchers and practitioners of peer production.

 

 

Your application also stated that the author does not hold the copyright without restrictions, and does not retain publishing rights without restrictions. However, I could not find any information about the copyright transfer requirement, or an indication of the rights holder for a published paper. This signals a lack of transparency in the authoring and publishing process. If you send me a link where this information can be found, I can update your DOAJ application.

 

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

 

Rhonda Marker
