</FONT>Another way to maintain high standards would be: every editing (edited page) would enter the base iff n members of ... let's say... the/a board of Editors (patented mathematicians or OEIS maintainers or people with Neil number 1 (like Erdös numbers)) would have validated it.<BR>
<BR>
There are "evident" and easy editing cases, or Comments, for which Neil is not absolutely necessary, which could go through this pathway. <BR>
Only the difficult/particular/special/not evident ones would be reserved for Neil.<BR>
<BR>
To facilitate this real process of *peer review*, and the communications between the peers, an easy system would be a sort of mailing-editing list, only accessible to the Editors: <BR>
1) editing pages would be openable only by the Editors (through nominative secrete keys for instance); <BR>
2) the sequences "in editing" or "Commented" would be displayed permanently to the Editors; the number of checkings/editings (already made) displayed on top, with the name of the editors and the date of their editing/checking/Comment;<BR>
3) as soon as the fixed number of checkings and countercheckings would be reached, the edited/commented sequence would automatically enter the base and replace the "old" sequence output. <BR>
<BR>
If peers don't agree with each other, it's a case of difficult/particular/special/not evident sequence. Reserved for Neil.<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
A peer reviewed base would offer a high standard, at least equal to the one offered by the founder father!<BR>
<BR>
It's just an idea.<BR>
