Frontiers[edit]

Is probably a predatory journal and thus not really suitable. Doc James (talk · contribs · email) 20:46, 19 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for your feedback.I will check my references in the future.
In this case however, Frontiers is not on the list of predatory journals, and it likely shouldn't be. It has been included in a controversial and retracted blacklist years ago, but not for valid reasons. See Nature on the subject.
Besides that it's an argumentum ad hominem towards the research papers publisher and doesn't provides arguments against the actual paper. To quote Lakens (researcher at University of Technology, Eindhoven, The Netherlands) "the articles people have published in Frontiers are no longer judged based on their own quality, but are now seen as less valuable because Frontiers is on Beall’s list" (Beall is a librarian who created a controversial blacklist, he took it down in januari 2017.)
Most characteristics associated with predatory journals do not apply here.
Several European, north-American and Australian countries and universities have national or consortium open-access agreements with Frontiers or are institutional members. For example: the UK, Yale University and CERN.
Most Frontiers journals are ranked "level 2" in the Norwegian Scientific Index, meaning they are in the top 20% of journals in their field. They even work with the world economic forum, and they are listed as member of COPE and OASPA so it doesn't seem a predatory publisher, they are legit.
Please revert the change. I will make sure to check for the list of predatory journals in the future.

The lead should summarize the body of the article. The article should be rewritten.Xx236 (talk) 06:10, 10 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Copying licensed material requires attribution[edit]

Hi. I see in a recent addition to Great Pacific garbage patch you included material from a webpage that is available under a compatible Creative Commons Licence. That's okay, but you have to give attribution so that our readers are made aware that you copied the prose rather than wrote it yourself. It's also required under the terms of the license. I've added the attribution for this particular instance. Please make sure that you follow this licensing requirement when copying from compatibly-licensed material in the future. — Diannaa (talk) 11:29, 8 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for bringing this to my attention and for taking the time to add the necessary attribution. Apologies for the oversight. I'm still in the process of learning so I appreciate your guidance. I'll ensure to be more diligent it in the future. kind regards DrAttendoloSforza (talk) 13:00, 14 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
