What if SCIEnCE becomes overrun with pseudoscience proposals?

0

Inevitably, there will be some proposals that most users judge to be trash. Of course, they laughed at Louis Pasteur once too. So, how to deal with these types of posts? One method would be to simply delete posts with the least hits from registered users over a certain period of time. However, there are many ways to deviously circumvent such a simplistic threshold. So, the PCR (and a rotating committee of SCIEnCE leaders) will take quality into account, as based upon user reviews, to weed out pseudoscientific trash.
