Based on readers' answers to my query on what works and what doesn't in peer-review, I've put together THIS POLL (poll suspended for revisions – see comments) for readers to rank features of the peer-review process in philosophy from best to worst. Although I'm by no means an expert at putting polls together, my hope is the results will give at least some rough indication of readers' attitudes. We'll see how it goes–and I plan to host discussion threads on specific issues moving forward–but I hope some of you take part!

  1. Glad you put this together. I’ll be very interested to see the results.

    Since so many of the features are negative, I found it very confusing to rank from best to worst. So much so that I didn’t do it. Could just be me though!

    I found it kind of hard too. As I was busy today I decided to put it off because of this. But I’ll do it later. Marcus, maybe if you want a lot of people to do this, you could make it a little easier?
