I wonder how a researcher send an unsolicited email to another one asking for feedback to their work. I guess it will be something like this?

>Hello Dr. X
>
>To introduce myself, I am Y, in institute Z. I'm sorry if this email is not convenient at this time, but my work about A is highly relevant to your work in B, so I think it will be interesting to you too. If possible, can you take a look at it and tell me what you think? Here is the link: [Human interaction with cats](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_interaction_with_cats) 
>
>Thank you for your reading, hope you enjoy it.

I wonder if the summary/abstract should be included in the email too, since the principle for [asking good question](https://academia.stackexchange.com/help/how-to-ask) is to show everything you know about it. Maybe it's not necessary, since the title of the link should prove its interestingness nevertheless? I'd like to have your confirm.

I'm also interested in the case where Y has no Z, and the link is just a collection of observations posted in a blog, not a full paper with proper citation and literary review. It is possible that the observations may have been covered in the field, but Y isn't aware of that yet.

I also think that if the link is interesting enough, then putting a tracking method in there is fine too? Even if they finds out, they wouldn't feel insulted either, because they find that the link is indeed interesting.
