Is Scopus really a curated bibliographic database?

A new Scientometrics study finds 2.7M records without author information, 500K+ records with unknown source titles, inconsistent document types, and even London recorded as an affiliation.

A useful reminder: better research assessment starts with understanding and checking the data - not just pressing a button.

A timely new commentary in the Journal of Clinical Epidemiology raises an uncomfortable question:

Can anti-metric research assessment reforms backfire in weak academic systems?

:doi: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jclinepi.2026.112430

Reducing metrics may work where institutions are strong. But in fragile systems, it may unintentionally increase the influence of favouritism, academic inbreeding, and opaque decision-making.

"Importantly, being an author is not only about credit but also about accountability. Typically, an author will be accountable for the quality and integrity of their own contribution, but also for the work as a whole by ensuring that questions arising post-publication are investigated thoroughly and that materials and data remain available."
