Hi #WebScience #LinkedResearch,

*This a "Web first" Call!*

If you are interested in Web Science and upgrading scholarly
communication to the era of the Web, this is a "Call" for you:

https://linkedresearch.org/calls#call-for-enabling-linked-research

We are going to make this work.

There is a growing list of folks who pledge to keep the spirit of the
Web alive in academic knowledge sharing and peer-review. This call is
intended for all of us who truly want to share our research and
development, and to understand and enhance the possibilities of the Web
for academia. To boldly go where no Web Scientist has gone before! Many
of us are working on different aspects of making scholarly communication
more accessible, so lets try to glue the pieces together.

There are no "papers" (archaic desktop or print based guidelines; no
paper sizes, arbitrary lengths, font-sizes, languages..). There are no
3rd party publishers.

For authors: *You*, the author is the publisher! You decide where you
want to store and preserve your work. (At your own or institution's
domain; Internet Archives, CEUR-WS, Zenodo and many other long-term
storages are able to keep copies around).

For reviewers: *You* get full attribution for your contributions. You
decide where you want to publish your feedback.

There is no hierarchy here. Everyone is welcome to peer-review! Just say
so (if you want to be on the list) or just review and announce your
contribution publicly.

The Call for Enabling Linked Research is an ongoing and online effort.
However, watch the events list for upcoming opportunities to present
your work in person. The next one (pending acceptance) is: "Enabling
Decentralised Scholarly Communication" at WWW2017:

Resistance is futile! ;)

☠ on the Subject line of this email is a misnomer. We speak in *Web
articles*.
