???? Uyisi123456, what news do you know?

dzcx 2022-04-23

luyisi123456, where did you see the notification? Can you kindly share it?

luyisi123456 2022-04-23

I have already been notified by Web of Science that after 2021, the papers will no longer be indexed. The quality of this journal was not good to begin with.

CCT 2022-04-23

Okay, thank you. It seems that all we can do for now is wait.

mythology94 2022-04-23

It feels very reasonable. If you haven't just invested or are in a hurry to graduate, there is no need to withdraw the paper. Besides, no matter what, the oil tycoon also cares about face. After all, he is at a decent level in Zone 4.

dzcx 2022-04-23

It is not about the presence of a mark on the retrieval certificate, but rather during the "on hold" period, the paper cannot be retrieved in Web of Science, and therefore a retrieval certificate cannot be obtained.

CCT 2022-04-23

Is there any latest news on this? Is the search warrant still on hold?

dzcx 2022-04-23

Has anyone written a letter to the editorial department and received a reply?

PingWu_ZJU2018 2022-04-23

Well said, those who have been hired and are not in a hurry to search, should still wait... We shouldn't follow the trend and submit to OA journals.

Attention everyone, it is obvious that there are institutions or intermediaries guiding the rhythm and inciting everyone to withdraw their submissions quickly and switch to open-access journals, even providing the names of the journals. This kind of incitement is disgraceful! Whether to withdraw your submission should be based on the actual situation, do not easily be swayed:

1. If you feel that the quality of your article is good and you have just submitted it, then withdrawing the submission at this time is indeed safer because the efficiency of the journal is not high, it is better to submit to another journal.
2. If your article is already in the revision stage, you can make the most of the deadline and wait for a while to see the final result on Web of Science.
3. If your article has been accepted but has not been published yet, you need to consider the importance of this article to you. If it is the only article for your graduation, then you need to consider it carefully based on your own situation. But if this is just one of your articles, I think it is better to wait and see. After all, this journal was suppressed in 2016 due to a high self-citation rate, but it recovered a year later after completing the rectification. Currently, it is only in the investigation stage. Is it necessary to withdraw your submission and submit it again?

Finally, let's make an objective evaluation of this journal. It is not difficult to be accepted, but the quality of most articles is still acceptable (considering it as a Q4 journal), but the time required for submission is long.

Unless absolutely necessary, I don't need an SCI paper. I absolutely cannot submit to OA as it would damage my academic reputation. I still have a few SCI papers in my hand, so I don't expect this paper to be published.

dzcx 2022-04-22

Last year, several special issues had problems, which then affected the overall situation.

hahsla 2022-04-22

I just want to know why the previous article is gone. It has been removed now. There should also be the previous article.

hahsla 2022-04-22

Is it not good to be oneself?

hahsla 2022-04-22

Where did you get the news from? Spreading rumors here, what if you don't end up being kicked out in the end? Aren't you just asking for trouble? Mountain cannon.

hahsla 2022-04-22

Is your guess authoritative? What if you advise everyone like this and end up not being chosen? You will definitely get scolded.

棠梨 2022-04-22

I just finished my minor repairs and I am also planning to wait and see the results of the handling first.

伪装 2022-04-22

Just being fair and objective. The Arab Earth journal still has some good articles. However, the social science papers published in it are truly worrying in terms of quality, not comparable to Complexity magazine from MDPI or Hindawi.

明天 2022-04-22

I choose to wait, of course, I don't expect this paper.

搞科研的孩子 2022-04-22

Hey bro, what's your plan for tomorrow? Are you cancelling the article or waiting to see?

1111 2022-04-22

Actually, the quality of the articles in the past 22 years has been good, and they should be included in the Web of Science (WoS). There shouldn't be any major issues. The key is that the number of articles published in 2021 has greatly increased, and the quality is uneven. You can ask the editor when the articles from 2022 will be retrievable in WoS.

明天 2022-04-22

I think the regular Arabian Geological Journal is fine, I have read their papers.
The main issue is with the special editions, that needs to be addressed for sure.
Previously, the journals that were kicked out usually had high self-citation rates and unethical behavior.
Even if Arabian Geological Journal is not great, it is not much better than MDPI and Hindawi's journals.

明天 2022-04-22

I just received the job offer notification, and I feel really embarrassed.

wogting 2022-04-22

Hello, how do I withdraw a published article? Thank you.

chanhuizhe 2022-04-22

Oh, forget it. I'm afraid everyone will misunderstand.

SCI容易中 2022-04-21

"This journal was kicked out."

九年 2022-04-21

Does anyone have any latest news? It seems like sooner or later we all have to get kicked out.

1111 2022-04-21

There is a high probability of being kicked out. The number of posts increased sharply last year, and the oversight was not strict, resulting in serious consequences.

dzcx 2022-04-21

I also found the ones mentioned downstairs, indeed due to self-citation reasons. This journal, like Personal and Ubiquitous Computing, seems to be affected by the same special issue incident.

搞科研的孩子 2022-04-21

Hey, should we wait or withdraw? How big is the hope of getting it back? We're counting on graduating.
