Project idea edit
What is the problem you're trying to solve? edit
Easier access to knowledge for everyone.
What is your solution? edit
By creating a forum for scientific publications Wikipedia can significantly broaden its scope and mission in making knowledge available for everyone. A key that needs solving is how peer review should work. However, Wikipedia already has one of the worlds finest peer review systems in the world for Wikipedia itself, and with some small modifications it should be possible to adjust that function to operate also as scientific peer review.
