I'm currently data cleansing prior to the launch of the QUB research portal
(repository) and I wanted to associate a rights statement with a particular
item record (beautifully accommodated in PURE : Atira). Elsevier's
systematic distribution notice reads:

_NOTICE: this is the author’s version of a work that was accepted for
publication in <Journal title>. Changes resulting from the publishing
process, such as peer review, editing, corrections, structural formatting,
and other quality control mechanisms may not be reflected in this document.
Changes may have been made to this work since it was submitted for
publication. A definitive version was subsequently published in
PUBLICATION, [VOL#, ISSUE#, (DATE)] DOI#_

Here's the sentence I'm having trouble with:

Changes resulting from the publishing process, *such as peer review*,
editing, corrections, structural formatting, and other quality control
mechanisms may not be reflected in this document

The accepted manuscript is the only version of the in-press copy that
Elsevier will allow for repository deposit via Green OA. I have always
worked on the assumption that this copy does in fact incorporate all of the
changes that have been recommended by the peer-review process. Am I
mistaken?
