[Uwe Fritz]

Such papers get highly cited. Further questions?

how come these kind of silly proposals get repeatedly published in
high-profile journals? perhaps this is something that deserved to be
also mentioned, politely
;-), in the rebuttal?

all the best, and let´s continue to try to keep our knowledge about
biological diversity organized, jaakko

If you want potential co-authors, there are a LOT of people posting
about this in other places, including FaceBook, and some have already
been asking others about co-authoring rebuttals. Might be productive to
try to coordinate, and I can possibly help connect people, including
people involved in conservation ecology.

Realistically, all it would likely require is one Google Doc whose link
can be given out to potential co-authors, selectively.
