I'm glad someone is tackling this authorship issue in wikis. That's one of the biggest concern that faculty members at my institution bring up against wikis. I wrote a report on Wikis in Higher Education (http://copland.udel.edu/~mathie...) that is mostly focused on teaching and learning, but if faculty would use wikis for research, it would seem more obvious to use them for teaching too. - Mathieu Plourde from FriendFeed MT Plugin

This is a great project. First step should be asking scientists to enter their search results that are in press. Sometimes it takes months or even a year to learn about new studies. Academic journals are slow and there are not a lot of conferences. Academic databases only cover published studies. So, sometimes it takes months or even a year to learn about new studies. This wiki format can fasten this process. - Kerem Ozkan
