  3. TIL that commercial publishers still really suck as conduit of the scientific discourse.

    Three months, and no updates, just a "we're looking at it. don't contact us, don't contact the author"

    Are they just waiting to see it blow over?

  4. "Only the Young" is a song written by #JonathanCain, #StevePerry and #NealSchon of the band #Journey. Previously intended for Journey's 1983 album #Frontiers, it was pulled from the album within days of recording in favor of songs "Back Talk" and "Troubled Child". It was then sold to the band #Scandal, who released it in 1984 on their album #Warrior, as the first commercially released version of the song.

  5. Far from enforcing their policies, publishers *hide* PISS. We learned most publisher policies ACTIVELY hide PISS by altering article metadata post-hoc. At a *minimum* #Frontiers, #Elsevier, #MDPI all do it publicly! Yikes. 🤯 Thanks to @[email protected] et al. for noting this (see pics). 11/n

  6. In fact we actually saw pretty similar rates of PISS across all publishers tested: #MDPI, #Frontiers, #BMC, #Discover, but also the non-profit RSoc. Give authors a chance to guest edit and they'll PISS. Relative rate: 1 in 7 editors PISS 😬 Still, the real problem is about ABSOLUTE quantity... 6/n

  7. In the strain on scientific publishing, we showed that total publications have grown out of control. A huge part of that was guest edited special issues by groups like #MDPI and #Frontiers. This ongoing practice is the largest delegation of editorial power academia has ever seen. 2/n

    The strain on scientific publi...

  8. Most journals practice special issues fairly responsibly. But it's the worst offenders that contribute most of the PISS. ~90% of PISS in our data come from just 150/904 journals. And it's exactly who you think it is. #MDPI #Frontiers 13/n

  10. "Faithfully" is a song by American rock band #Journey, released in 1983 as the second single from their album #Frontiers. The song was written by keyboardist #JonathanCain. It peaked at number 12 on the #Billboard Hot 100, giving the band their second consecutive top-twenty hit from Frontiers. Despite featuring no chorus, it has gone on to become one of the band's most recognizable hits and has enjoyed lasting popularity. In a #ClassicRock article.

  12. Update. In response to this problem (previous post, this thread), some publishers are desk-rejecting papers based on open health datasets. The problem is not the quality of the data, but the absence of additional work to validate findings.

    Two reports:

    1. "Journals and publishers crack down on research from open health data sets," Science, Oct 8, 2025.
    science.org/content/article/jo

    2. "AI: Journals are automatically rejecting public health dataset papers to combat paper mills," BMJ, Oct 15, 2025.

  29. @gkalinkat @SciMag

    To clarify: I think these #mdpi #frontiers #SciRep should be treated as #preprints. I agree there are some really good preprints!

    Regarding options for #openreview publishing, there's now @PeerCommunityIn and @PeerCommunityJournal for many fields!

  30. @SciMag is alarmed that low quality articles are flawing #SystematicReviews.

    One solution is to only include studies that are in #opendata.

    Another is to ignore #predatory and journals in the "gray zone" (e.g. all #MDPI, #Frontiers, #ScientificReports, etc.) as we already do in evaluation committees.
