Nearly 20 #Hindawi #journals have been delisted from a leading index amid concerns of #PaperMill activity. #ScienceEditors and #MedicalEditors, beware which journals you are editing for—no #fake #science, please. https://retractionwatch.com/2023/03/21/nearly-20-hindawi-journals-delisted-from-leading-index-amid-concerns-of-papermill-activity/ #Bookstodon

I'm liking this article as a #resource for #ScienceEditors & #MedicalEditors, even though its intended audience is science & medical researchers who are preparing a #manuscript for submission to a #journal.

The article's Figure 1 is a handy reminder.
