Managing a conflict of interest[edit]
Hello, MarthaAttardGialanze. We welcome your contributions, but if you have an external relationship with the people, places or things you have written about on the page F1000 (publisher), you may have a conflict of interest (COI). Editors with a conflict of interest may be unduly influenced by their connection to the topic. See the conflict of interest guideline and FAQ for organizations for more information. We ask that you:
- avoid editing or creating articles about yourself, your family, friends, colleagues, company, organization, clients, or competitors;
- propose changes on the talk pages of affected articles (you can use the {{request edit}} template);
- disclose your conflict of interest when discussing affected articles (see Wikipedia:Conflict of interest#How to disclose a COI);
- avoid linking to your organization's website in other articles (see Wikipedia:Spam#External link spamming);
- do your best to comply with Wikipedia's content policies.
In addition, you are required by the Wikimedia Foundation's terms of use to disclose your employer, client, and affiliation with respect to any contribution which forms all or part of work for which you receive, or expect to receive, compensation. See Wikipedia:Paid-contribution disclosure.
Also, editing for the purpose of advertising, publicising, or promoting anyone or anything is not permitted. Thank you. Kristiannumber1 (talk) 16:45, 10 November 2022 (UTC)
F1000 out of action?[edit]
Do you have any idea why F1000 seems to be out of action right now, since apparently you work there? On 30 Jan 2023 I was asked to provide a report on v2 of a paper. F1000 pressured me just a week later on 6 Feb 2023 to provide my second report. I sent my second report the same day 6 Feb and it was confirmed as received. But despite the apparent urgency, my second report was not published. On 21 April 2023 I sent a reminder email and my report on v2 has still not been published. It's rather unethical to pressure a reviewer to provide a report quickly and then refuse to rapidly publish that report - when the whole point of F1000 is to have open peer review. The paper] does not qualify as a science research paper, even if it does have some elementary algebra in it, but I put in the effort to give both a report for v1 and a report for v2, and it's quite annoying that the second report has been piped to /dev/null. Since email is apparently ignored, I'm taking the liberty of letting you pass on the message in case you have some contact with F1000 staff ...
This is very unlikely to count as notable material for the article, which is why I'm raising this on your talk page and not at Talk:F1000 (publisher). Though maybe there are some sources describing whatever problems F1000 is currently having? While your COI would probably discourage you from linking to material describing whatever crisis F1000 is going through right now, if you're willing to try being neutral enough, then you could of course point to some recent news articles about F1000's current problem, whatever that happens to be. Maybe something linked with the SAGE takeover?
This is not as bad as predatory journals, but it's still annoying. Boud (talk) 00:37, 25 May 2023 (UTC)
