Thank you again for your your efforts to keep track of these publishers and journals. Although I am getting better at spotting these emails, it is still good to have a place to go to confirm my suspicions, and to make others aware of this expanding problem. Below is copy-paste of an email I just got from this (to me) new journal and publisher (MedWin). A quick google led me here to your post, confirming my suspicions. Please, keep up the good work. If people get so tired of this, that they even stop tracking it and stop acknowledging it or discussing it, these predatory journals get a “free pass” to keep going, and trapping potentially good science in these journals. Young/new investigators could compromise their career by publishing their research in these journals.

Dear Mr. Beall,

Thank you for the incredible work that you do. Do you have a list of questionable conferences as well?

I have seen many article where you are being criticized for not publishing names of good journals. To all of them i want to say that journals are meant to be good. just like salt is meant to be salty, a journal is meant to be disseminating knowledge and knowledge is always, pure,new and enlightening. so it’s only meaningful to point fingers at those so called “journals” who are not. simple.

Here is a different perspective. I understand from reading other blogs and from our experience in publishing a paper in Oncotarget that many authors have Indeed received regular peer review and recommendations for major revisions etc. from Oncotarget. My main point though, is that assuming the author of this blog has accurately reported his/her experience, the conclusion that “everyone but science” wins seems to be poorly thought through. Science always wins when new information is reported, regardless of any limitations of the research. Scientists who rely on any journal peer review to determine the veracity of research findings, rather than completely reading and assessing papers of interest to them, lack thoroughness and will undoubtedly be misled due to limitations of peer review in even ‘top’ journals. In fact science loses when a few gatekeepers of high impact journals impose their own bias on what reports are worthy of publication and force valuable information to be published in lower impact journals that many would wrongly assume to be of poor quality. Another truth is that all high impact journals, in a manner of speaking, game the system in different ways to protect their impact factor. This includes limiting publications to narrow fields in which there is a greater frequency of publications, publishing review articles etc.

My recently submitted paper to Oncotarget was reviewed by 5 reviewers who made some very insightful comments and requested several new experiments. I think the reviewing process is as rigorous as any other journal with similar impact factor.
