What an excellent idea! NMaia (talk) 22:28, 16 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
I've wanted to see this in other fields for some time (and would be willing to assist/lead if anyone else is interested), but "Wikiversity" is a clunky name that I imagine will get in the way of spreading the actual journal. It would be better shortened to "wiki" or "open" in relationship to "scholarship" (or something synonymous that doesn't require learning new words). czar 18:39, 17 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Good point, czar! You are welcome to suggest alternative names at: Wikiversity Journal/Future as separate Wikimedia project. Mikael Häggström (talk) 05:09, 21 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

This journal was presented at Wikimania 2016 as the talk described at wm2016:Critical issues presentations/Wikiversity Journal of Medicine. The talk was video recorded. I expect that it will be online eventually. Blue Rasberry (talk) 14:26, 29 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
