Good morning!

Thinking positively, I would recommend the following change in one 
clause of the *What rights do I retain as a journal author*?* stated in 
Elsevier's portal, which says

"the right to post a revised personal version of the text of the final 
journal article (to reflect changes made in the peer review process) on 
your personal or institutional website or server for scholarly 
purposes*, incorporating the complete citation and with a link to the 
Digital Object Identifier (DOI) of the article (*but not in 
subject-oriented or centralized repositories or institutional 
repositories with mandates for systematic postings* unless there is a 
specific agreement with the publisher. External linkClick here 
<http://www.elsevier.com/wps/find/authorsview.authors/fundingbodyagreements> 
for further information);"


*By this one:*

"the right to post a revised personal version of the text of the final 
journal article (to reflect changes made in the peer review process) *on 
your personal,  institutional website, **subject-oriented or centralized 
repositories or institutional repositories *or server for scholarly 
purposes, incorporating the complete citation and with a link to the 
Digital Object Identifier (DOI) of the article "


I think this could be something to be encouraged, celebrated and recognized!
