In support of the frontiers response to the manifesto is that distributing editorial power protects against potential abuses, concentration of decision making is anathema to scientific progress

Dear Dr Jeffrey Beall,

May you please check “Pakistan Journal of Nutrition”? I submitted a paper before, despite in the website they mentioned “peer review”, but actually they didn’t go through peer review progress, and straight accepted my paper and ask for submission fee. My colleagues also encounter the same problem. But this journal is not listed in your blog, so I wish to seek for your advice whether it is trusted journal. Thanks

It’s not easy to work out how many publications there are in the Arulmani-Hema Latha oeuvre. Sylvie Coyaud found Arulmani’s website where he lists 74 ‘papers’
http://prehistoricmarscode.blogspot.com/
— but he omits all the duplicate publications of which they are fond. ‘THE UNIVERSAL LAMP?… (A New theory on “ e-Fuel”)’, for instance, appears in International Journal of Advancements in Research & Technology and Academia Arena. ‘PYRAMIDS ARE PREHISTORIC RF ANTENNA?!’ appears in International Journal of Scientific & Engineering Research and in Academia Arena again.

Despite the lack of effort they put into their project, I suspect they are well-remunerated for the output.

A new one or a reincarnation? One does not find Open Access Journals on your list.

This journal is published by the Asian Network for Scientific Information, also called ansinet. This publisher is included on my list, so I recommend that researchers not submit any papers to this journal or the other ones from this publisher.

I prefer to list at the publisher level whenever possible, for there are too many individual journals for me to track and analyze. I do have a second list of “standalone” journals when the journal exists by itself and there is no website for its publisher. So, in the example from your previous comment, I do have the publisher listed. Thank you.

I cannot supply the list you request; I limit my work to questionable journals and publishers.
AJOL is an aggregator, not a publisher, and as such is not eligible for my list.
I am still trying to figure out ScopeMed.

Comment on Is Scientific Research Publishing (SCIRP) Publishing Pseudo-Science? by Myself

$

Don’t worry, all the journals of the “climate changes caused by the CO2″ mafia such as Nature, Nature Climate Changes, Science, AGU journals, Elsevier journals, Am. J of Met journals, etc, etc, that is, all those that compose and strongly promote the corresponding “science” basis publish, after peer-reviews, the concept that “more water evaporates as the atmosphere warms”. But this is totally wrong because the evaporation DECREASES as the air temperature increases. And this exists in any evaporation equation, but it is in indirect way, and this is why those researchers are not aware of the true science because they are totally empiricists. And such erroneous and absurd concept forms the dogmas or pillars of the so called global warming and “climate changes caused by the CO2″.
This knowledge you did not like to hear and you will remove it because even unaware of the true science you protect the true predators of the true science.

D. F. O’H:
Thank you for this information. I sent an article in reply to the call-for-papers and had it glowingly accepted. However, I got suspicious when they asked for a hefty fee to publish it. I went online to find information about this group, and I’m glad I found your blog. We can’t trust anything these days. Thanks for saving me a chunk of money and a lot of shame! I feel so sorry for ET!
