My comments and notes on papers I've been reading. Most of the time, there will be something to be written about any given paper, even if it is just a single sentence. Eventually, though, there will be entries without notes. This is in no way a judgement on the paper's quality.
Direct quotes will generally be in itallics. Sometimes I will include direct translations alongside my own comments. I did not go to great lenghts to separate one from the other, but I am obviously not claiming autorship over anything that is not my original production.
Remember to always cite the original papers. Science is built on accountability.
