Briefly, there are three modes of peer-review in Scholarpedia:

You can sprinkle your comments into the article by putting them into <review> comments here </review> brackets. The text will appear in red to you and to the authors. Anybody, including the author, can see every change you made by going to the 'revisions' link above the article and pressing 'compare selected versions' button.
3. Mixed-mode review: You can modify the article to make minor changes, and you put your major points into the 'reviews' part of the article. %AUTHORPREFERENCES%
