Describe the problem you would like to solve
Reviewers will soon be able to get credit for their reviews when they have an authenticated ORCID (see pkp/orcidProfile#181). Journals want to use this information, verified by ORCID, to demonstrate that they adhere to high editorial standards.

Describe the solution you'd like
The journal should be able to display a list of all the reviewers who completed a review for them in a given year, along with a link to their authenticated ORCID profile so that readers can confirm that the reviews took place. The journal also wants to be able to show statistics about the % of review assignments that have been completed by reviewers with an authenticated ORCID.

Care will need to be taken to ensure that anonymous review information is not disclosed, such as the dates of reviews or the items reviewed.

Who is asking for this feature?
Journals that struggle with the perception of being predatory or low-quality. This is part of the Integrity Initiative project led by @willinsky.
