I've got an idea how we can keep interesting research papers like this readily available to newbies and veterans alike without the redundancies that occur over time from such studies being posted repeatedly.
All that would be needed would be the creation of a new forum entitled "Research" which could be located with, and be similar to the current archives.
Upon seeing an article such as this, or after being otherwise apprised of it, an admin or moderator could COPY (NOT move, just copy) the article to the Research Forum, leaving the original article and the subsequent discussion intact within the forum in which it was posted.
The discussion segment of the copy of the thread that's landed in the Research Forum could then be cut away, but a link would be provided directing readers to where they could find the article on the active discussion board where they could, if desired, view the public discussion and post their contributions.
This way there could be one board with thread after thread of concisely titled Research studies, papers, and articles where any user could find the accumulated knowledge of years of Pheromone Research, reading only the studies if that's their goal, and being able to choose which topics he or she might decide to view or contribute to in the discussion area.
Of the nine "user write-able" forums on this board only two are currently devoted solely to the study of Pheromone Science. I think adding one with a specifically "Scientific" theme would be good for our overall credibility.
In a way quite similar to how I think we can make the Research Forum work, I've moved this post from within a thread on the Pheromone Discussion board. You can see where it was originally posted by clicking here. (http://love-scent.com/forum/showthread.php?t=10924)
