Nature supports the RRID initiative
Here is the information from RRID newsletter:
"We are pleased to announce that a new journal joins the RRID family.
Updates to the submission guidelines can be found here.
According to Wikipedia, "Norman Lockyer, decided to create a new scientific journal titled Nature, taking its name from a line by William Wordsworth: "To the solid ground of nature trusts the Mind that builds for aye". First owned and published by Alexander Macmillan, Nature was similar to its predecessors in its attempt to "provide cultivated readers with an accessible forum for reading about advances in scientific knowledge." - this is still largely the case.
Since 1867, this journal underwent some interesting changes, from a journal largely authored by then controversial figures such as Thomas Henry Huxley and Joseph Dalton Hooker to an international journal of considerable reputation under the watchful eye of Richard Gregory, who helped to establish Nature's prominence in the international scientific community.
Nature's stockpiles of articles sent in by this engaged international community to be considered for publication continued to grow. The editors finally got fed up with the massive backlogs and reading all of these papers themselves and decided to simply offload the task to friends, thus creating the modern system of peer review.
Today, Nature begins to move again to update policies and make waves as it joins the RRID initiative. "
