A fact from Open Access movement appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 11 August 2008, and was viewed approximately 649 times (disclaimer) (check views). The text of the entry was as follows:
This is an interesting article. I have some suggestions for improvement. The article centers around a long timeline, which is dull to read, and seems to me to be too raw. The last two paragraphs seem POV and unencyclopedic to me. In the lead, we have "Although there is substantial (though not universal) agreement on the concept of OA itself, there is considerable debate and discussion about the economics of funding peer review in open access publishing, and the reliability and economic effects of self-archiving." Two problems here: (1) the sentence reads like word salad, and (2) the article never goes on to deal with the debates and issues alluded to here.--76.167.77.165 (talk) 21:35, 10 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
