This page is an attempt to offer a simpler alternative to Wikipedia:Scientific peer review.
If you wish to have an article reviewed by an expert (or better, two experts) in the subject, simply find an appropriate expert and ask them to review the article. If they require more detail, you may wish to ask them to focus on factual accuracy and omissions. Any more general comments will no doubt be equally welcome.
Once the review has been completed, you or the reviewer can publish it on the talk page, and you can put the following template at the top of the talk page:
{{external peer review
| date = date of review submission
| org = Reviewer Name, qualification
| comment = }}
It is fine to leave the comment field blank. Examples of suitable ways to fill in the "org" field would be:
Prof. Isaac Newton, University of Heaven
Heinz Gregarious, author of "The sexy sons hypothesis"
