We are back! After a brief summer break, it’s time for another weeknote from PREreview.org!
What’s new at PREreview?
Over the past few weeks, we’ve been getting our dataset review workflow ready for testing. You can now try it out over on sandbox.prereview.org! So far, this workflow supports reviewing datasets from Dryad. We’ll be supporting more data publication platforms as we go, so if you have a favorite you’d like us to include, please let us know by emailing help@prereview.org.
You may also have noticed that we now feature Brazilian Portuguese and Latin American Spanish localizations and translations throughout the website and across several resources. You can help us pick our next languages for localization and translation by completing this survey before the end of next week (3 October 2024).
What’s next?
Within the next few weeks, we’ll share the first iteration of our public data dashboard with all of you. This dashboard will share aggregated, anonymized stats about requests and reviews on PREreview. We’re building this first version of the dashboard to answer frequently asked questions like, “How many reviews do you have in my language?”, “How many reviews have been published by clubs?”, or, “How many reviews deal with preprints about my field?”
Then, just a bit further down the roadmap towards the end of 2025, we’ll work on some kind of matchmaking mechanism to help alert you whenever a request or a review has been published in an area of interest to you.
