The researchers whose trusted networks rank it highest, strongest advocate first. Every researcher gets a different order.

Beyond scarcity: citizen science programmes as useful tools for conservation biogeography (2010, background): “The relevance of a particular dataset for large-scale investigations is not a matter of scale and numbers: large datasets can still be flawed by bias and pitfalls resulting from the sampling design (Lepczyk, 2005).”
Improving and integrating data on invasive species collected by citizen scientists (2010, background): “Citizen scientists may also have access to lands that may not be accessible to professional scientists, allowing them to discover invasive species not yet detected elsewhere (Lepczyk 2005).”
Beyond control : wider implications for the management of biological invasions (2006, background): “The mobilization of volunteers and ‘citizen science’ initiatives may provide a less costly approach but savings would need to be balanced against biases in reporting, misidentification and variable survey effort (Lepczyk 2005).”
