"Monument to peer review"

Latest comment: 11 months ago2 comments2 people in discussion

The sentence "A monument to peer review has been at the Higher School of Economics in Moscow since 2017." as the last sentence in the introduction of the article is confusing to me. It seems unrelated to other content in the introduction. Should it be moved somewhere else in the article? Herring404 (talk) 14:01, 28 August 2025 (UTC)Reply

I think it's fine where it is but if you think it fits better somewhere else please move it! ElKevbo (talk) 22:11, 28 August 2025 (UTC)Reply
