It is a very interesting question. I have written also an article in a review with my master degree. The editorial board was very kind to me, they gave me some advices to make my work better.
So...i think the science belongs to everybody. It is another question that in a peer reviewed journal the editors have more works with an amateur scientist. One should ask them about this topic...
On the other site there are the other researchers who can prove the paper of the master student before they cite it maybe. I think a master student can also have good ideas what can be useful for others.
