The editor requested references for this sentence "Some research institutions are already taking measures to ensure that this trend does not slow scientific progress". Here's a few that might be useful:

I primarily had in mind for this the Moore-Sloan efforts at UW, Berkeley, and NYU, but aside from blog posts like the ones @benmarwick listed, I'm not certain of any citable references to that work.

I see. Thanks! I can't find any formal publication either.
I think I'll refer them to the Moore-Sloan website (http://msdse.org/about/). Or, if they want something more 'citable', this article in Nature: http://www.nature.com/nature/journal/v520/n7546/full/nj7546-253a.html

Cheers
