Beyond traditional brand-name academic publishers like Wiley and Oxford University Press, how do Wikipedians know when to trust new genres of scholarly research output? Innovative, open-source publishing platforms such as the Open Science Framework and MIT's PubPub provide exciting new affordances in the knowledge ecosystem.
