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.
:doi: https://doi.org/10.1007/s11192-026-05778-9
A useful reminder: better research assessment starts with understanding and checking the data - not just pressing a button.

An interesting paper by Lutz Bornmann and António Osório on incentives, competition, and undesirable practices in science.
The debate over research metrics is often framed too simply: metrics or no metrics? A better question is: what kind of behaviour does an evaluation system make rational? Good research assessment should make doing good science the rational choice.

An interesting evolution from Mike Thelwall. A year ago, he was cautiously exploring whether LLMs could approximate expert research assessment. Today, he reports that ChatGPT-5 mini reached correlations of up to 0.905 with expert REF2021 quality assessments across some disciplines, using a dataset of more than 107,000 UK research articles.

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.

Can a national research ranking claim to reward the "most productive researchers" while capping the value of additional scientific output?
I looked closely at the formula behind Ukraine's new government-funded ranking. My conclusion: it optimizes for something quite different. Full explanation on LinkedIn 👇

A new study analysing 248 CoARA action plans suggests that many organizations still treat Open Science more as a set of values than as concrete research practices.
:doi: https://doi.org/10.1007/s11192-026-05650-w
Open Access remains the dominant and most institutionalized form of Open Science, appearing in 41% of plans. Meanwhile, key UNESCO-promoted practices such as Open Evaluation or Open Methods are barely mentioned at all.
