What do we want? Open science + transparent peer review!

When do we want it? Now!

Yet, reviewers will hide behind the cloak of anonymity. As an editor, there is little to be done about such behaviour. 😔

I sign my reviews, but I've softened on universal open peer review due to real concerns about retaliation, esp. if there's power imbalances; some people are that petty. OPR also makes it harder to find refs, hard enough with single-anonymised review. A compromise is optional signing and all reviews being published if the paper is accepted. Editors/publishers can check for COIs.
