[//]: # "======================= Even if you know Github well, we suggest you read this. Anything between these lines you can leave or delete, as they won't display anyway when you post (you can check this via Preview changes). They're here to help you complete issues quickly and in a way that will help other participants. If you're posting a new project, or challenge. We suggest you fill out the Google Forms first. ============================"

At a glance

[//]: # "======================= Please paste the metadata you received after submitting your project or challenge in your Google Form exactly as we sent it to you. You can delete what's there now, it's just there ============================"

Description

Open Science Database: An open database of scholarly journals, their publications, and citations

[//]: # "======================= Insert a paragraph providing more context for your project or challenge focuses on. For project leads, this is a good place to give some broader context about your project—beyond the scope of the do-a-thon. If you're posting a challenge, this is a good chance to say how the problem arise or why it feels relevant to you. ============================"

What are we working on during the do-a-thon? What kinds of support do we need?

[//]: # "======================= For those leading projects, please give some more information about what type of support you are specifically looking to get done during the do-a-thon day. Note: Challenge leads will not need to fill out this section and can remove it. ============================"

How can others contribute?

Let's discuss it here!

[//]: # "======================= Please say what the best way to contribute to the project or challenge is, sometimes that will just be 'lets discuss here' or 'Ive started a Google doc'. If you are a challenge lead, give some context on what design thinking tools you will be using, and how other folks can update their ideas onto the thread. If you are a project lead, and you already have clear ways people can contribute it might be worth linking to them here. Language: If your project is regionally based in a non-English-speaking region, clarify here what language you and contributors will primarily be communicating in. If you're leading a project or challenge participating remotely: Use this space to let people know that this is a remote project and that you are not 'in the room' in Berlin. Let other participants know what the best way to get in touch with you, where the work will happen, and where any updates or outputs will go. If you are at the in-person meeting in Berlin: Be as inclusive as possible to those outside the room. Use this space to give clear instructions to those participating in the do-a-thon remotely on how they can keep up to date and contribute. ============================"

[//]: # "======================= You're ready to post!!! After posting your issue, the real work begins. Next, you might want to: Tweet a link to this issue with #opencon so others can join in Make another issue to involve people in your work - remember to use your metadata Come back from time to time and update the community on your project. You'll get an email update whenever someone interacts with your issue. ============================"

The following projects seem relevant here:

A key ingredient that is largely missing is licensing information at the level of journals and/ or articles, so getting that into Wikidata (via https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Property:P275 ) would be very useful.

Guys, where are you?

moqri commented 6 years ago

Thanks @Daniel-Mietchen . these are great projects. Specially I did not know about the WikiCite. I am looking into them now.

We need to define the concept of predatory journal. OA or noOA journal, have to develop a minimal quality academic and scientific. The own epistemic community gave legitimation of the journals. Develop kind of best prectice or check list of good OA journal in terms of quality, visibility and accesibiity could be the first steps

matg20 commented 6 years ago

Follow the experience of Jeffrey Bell related to predatory journal and then the black list https://www.nature.com/news/pay-to-view-blacklist-of-predatory-journals-set-to-launch-1.22090

@Daniel-Mietchen for license data at the level of journals, this seems a good source: http://www.sherpa.ac.uk/romeo/index.php
