I have removed "open access" in the description as Cairn does hide some articles behind a paywall. (see https://www.cairn.info/conditions-generales-de-vente.php ) Also I am not hugely convinced that this is worth being stored as an identifier - do we have any stability guarantees? any APIs? any other system that uses these URLs to identify authors? I would rather use described at URL (P973) for something like this. − Pintoch (talk) 06:43, 7 October 2017 (UTC)
Support Without the technical problem, Cairn is a well-known website in France. --Framawiki (please notify !) (talk) Sorry for my bad English :) 08:50, 8 October 2017 (UTC)- Support. Nomen ad hoc (talk) 04:57, 13 October 2017 (UTC).
- Support ++ Cairn is not technically open access but recent articles are freely accessible after a delay, defined individually for each serials (2 to 5 years), and is very well known in social sciences for giving access to a lot of scientific reviews in history, geography, psychology, sociology. I've used it (entirely freely) for years, without any problem. They are also associated with Bibliothèque nationale de France (Q193563) that directly refers their online collections for periodicals in its catalog like here. Very good source. And author's pages are definitely a very complementary source for access to scientific articles in social science. --Hsarrazin (talk) 07:47, 13 October 2017 (UTC)
