in a standard style and submitted them for publication
This will be one of the greater challenges; we know the argument and how to write well, but each academic discipline has rigid rules for style in publications. This particular journal, with its wide scope, may be a bit more tolerant, but in general learning the style is important if one wants to influence academia.
I imagine that one will have to go beyond the crowdsourcing approach in achieving this.
If you are coordinating, let me know if and how I can help.
I was mostly thinking that people would jointly write a draft article, which the more experienced writers would then edit to conform with a more academic style, if necessary.
Kaj, great idea
