To illustrate this approach simply, we can represent preprint review processes with the initials PR (Publish, Review): To illustrate this approach simply, we can represent preprint review processes with the initials PR (Publish, Review):
1. Publish - researchers publish preprints on ‘preprint servers’ 1. **Publish** - researchers publish preprints on ‘preprint servers’
2. Review - researchers review the preprints (and share the reviews) 2. **Review** - researchers review the preprints (and share the reviews)
Traditional journal publishing, on the other hand, could be described with the initials RP (Review, Publish): Traditional journal publishing, on the other hand, could be described with the initials RP (Review, Publish):
1. Review - researchers review a submitted manuscript 1. **Review** - researchers review a submitted manuscript
2. Publish - the manuscript is published 2. **Publish** - the manuscript is published
