Comments for Scholarly Open Access

Sir is the American Journal of Theoretical and Applied Statistics a predatory journal?

Dr. Beall,
Happy new year to you and your entire team. I would like to ask your honest assessment..I happened to publish my paper in Journal of Arts and Humanities (JAH) which I only discover now that this is part of the standalone predatory journal.
My question is, what will happen to my paper? Will it still be considered or recognized as a reliable paper though published in the predatory journal? I hope for your response as soon as possible. Thank you.

thank you very much sir for your valuable comments

Dear Dr Bealls
Is Fronteirs in Surgery a predator journal? please advise.
best regards

Do you have any information on the open access journal Advances in Modern Oncology Research (http://www.advmodoncolres.com/index.php/AMOR). How authentic is this website. They have requested manuscripts from us.

Yes. This journal is published by a firm called PiscoMed Publishing. I have this publisher included on my list <a href="https://scholarlyoa.com/publishers/" target="_blank">here</a>, and I recommend against agreeing to their request. It's not authentic.

There’s no easy answer to this question. It depends on the policies of each university, funder, etc. If your paper is strong, try to focus on the strengths of the paper rather than the publisher or journal. Also, sit down and write a new and better paper and submit it to a rigorous journal.

I have the publisher Frontiers included in my <a href="https://scholarlyoa.com/publishers/" target="_blank">list </a>and recommend against sending papers to its journals.

Yes, this journal is really from Pakistan, not America, and it is from Science Publishing Group, a horrible publisher. Please find a better journal from a legitimate publisher.

Hello,

Could you please guide that whether “International Journal of Economics and Financial Issues ISSN: 2146-4138 ” is an Indexed and Impact factor journal?

Is it to publish in this journal or not?
Looking forward for your positive response.

No. I have this journal’s publisher, Econjournals, included on my list here: https://scholarlyoa.com/publishers/. I recommend against publishing in this journal and also the other one from this publisher. I recommend finding a stronger journal from a respected publisher.

Dear Sir,

Thank you so much for your prompt and detailed reply. Have a great time.

Respectful Regards,
Imran, Pakistan

Hi Everyone,

Thanks for your feedback on ResearcherID. Clarivate Analytics does continue to curate the RID database and we regularly notify the owners of RID accounts that appear to be not in compliance with our end user license agreement. We would prefer that account owners correct their own accounts, or make them private where appropriate, but if a RID user is not responsive or refuses to comply with our correction notice we can and do suspend accounts. That being said, the RID environment is mostly ‘self-policing’; the accounts that do violate our EULA or community norms are typically brought to our attention by users of the site. So posts like this one are part of the policing system…we’ve taken steps to notify those journals listed above that are in violation of the EULA to either delete their accounts or make their profiles private. Please do contact our technical support team if you notice other RIDs that seem to be in violation of the RID terms of use.

It was removed in October 2015 after they appealed, and the board recommended removal. The borderline cases present the biggest challenges.

How do you know it can not be ISO certified and its totally fake. .???

Could you give me some strong proof?

thank you

I just got one that hilariously starts off:

We talked some months ago about the idea of publishing a followup article to the one you authored entitled “[TITLE]”

(It really says “[TITLE]” — that’s not me removing an actual title.)

I couldn’t help replying:

A followup to my article entitled “[TITLE]” — how could I resist! It’s the best article I’ve written about [SUBJECT], though I have to say I couldn’t have done it without [CO-AUTHORS]. Which was more impressive, our use of [METHODS] or our collection of [DATA]?

hello
I happened to publish my paper in İnternational journal of humanities and social science invention. I only discover now that is predatory journal. But I gave copyright. Can I draw back my paper. I hope for your response as soon as possible. Thank you
