I think for me, even reminding them to check for the existence of the article and the reputability of the journal is a major plus, something that many don't realize you need to do.
Talking through this made me realize that I have to also emphasize that the article actually has to be published, and that websites like arxiv.org host both published and unpublished articles

websites like arxiv.org host both published and unpublished articles
Good point. Are there any reliable stats about what makes it from pre-print to full publication?
reply
There probably are, but I'm not aware of them. I've seen some pretty wacky stuff on arxiv before. There's a lot of gold in it, but a lot of stuff they don't quality-check as well.

I didn't even know they did any checks!
