A consensus journal requires mechanisms for both coordination and
protection. In the simplest case, a mediator can provide these. This
assumes protected channels of communication and a trusted mediator.
Coordination is necessary to identify consensus positions and avoid
duplication of effort. Protection of reviews is necessary to ensure
that assumptions of models for evaluating expertise are not
violated. This protection allows valid reputation development by
both authors and referees. Such reputations can then be used to
ensure effective allocation of expertise. The extension of review
opportunities to the entire readership vastly extends the available
field of expertise. This, combined with the effective allocation of
expertise and coordination that eliminates duplication of effort,
provide consensus journals with a significant advantage over current
mechanisms for enhancement of message quality.
