uh it's kinda hard not to call gay's resignation the product of racism when the loudest people gunning for it were white supremacists suddenly pretending they cared about antisemitism, not jews. this is chris rufo taking credit for the whole thing in wsj. https://www.wsj.com/articles/how-we-squeezed-harvard-claudine-gay-firing-dei-antisemitism-culture-war-a6843c4c

dude. i don’t have enough crayons to explain to you how nuance works. yes, white supremacists wanted her to resign. AT THE SAME TIME, she’s an antisemite refusing to offer the same protections to jewish students that she gives to every other kind of student, which is a failure to do her job and bigotry that deserves resignation. a fucking seagull could understand this.

it’s incredibly fucking telling right now that leftists weren’t just as loud demanding she resign for such blatant antisemitism and stupidity. it’s a crystal clear example of what’s wrong with american leftism and their wholehearted lack of care for jews and jewish safety. and instead of viewing it as a failure of the american left, all y’all see it as is a black woman getting fired. go fuck yourself.

#Asks #anonymoose #antisemitism #‘the loudest people calling’ shows who tf you’re listening to #you didn’t hear a single jew upset about it #but boy howdy you heard republicans #who gives a flying fuck what those pesky jews want!#it’s a black woman!#it’s not like there’s legitimate grounds for resignation

By: Nidhi Subbaraman

Published: May 14, 2024

Wiley will announce that it will shutter 19 more journals, some tainted by fraud.

Fake studies have flooded the publishers of top scientific journals leading to thousands of retractions and millions of dollars in lost revenue. The biggest hit has come to Wiley, a 217-year-old publisher based in Hoboken, N.J., which Tuesday will announce that it is closing 19 journals, some of which were infected by large-scale research fraud.

In the past two years, Wiley has retracted more than 11,300 papers that appeared compromised, according to a spokesperson, and closed four journals. It isn’t alone: At least two other publishers have retracted hundreds of suspect papers each. Several others have pulled smaller clusters of bad papers.

Although this large-scale fraud represents a small percentage of submissions to journals, it threatens the legitimacy of the nearly $30 billion academic publishing industry and the credibility of science as a whole.

The discovery of nearly 900 fraudulent papers in 2022 at IOP Publishing, a physical sciences publisher, was a turning point for the nonprofit. “That really crystallized for us, everybody internally, everybody involved with the business," said Kim Eggleton, head of peer review and research integrity at the publisher. “This is a real threat."

The sources of the fake science are “paper mills"—businesses or individuals that, for a price, will list a scientist as an author of a wholly or partially fabricated paper. The mill then submits the work, generally avoiding the most prestigious journals in favor of publications such as one-off special editions that might not undergo as thorough a review and where they have a better chance of getting bogus work published.

World-over, scientists are under pressure to publish in peer-reviewed journals—sometimes to win grants, other times as conditions for promotions. Researchers say this motivates people to cheat the system. Many journals charge a fee to authors to publish in them.

Problematic papers typically appear in batches of up to hundreds or even thousands within a publisher or journal. A signature move is to submit the same paper to multiple journals at once to maximize the chance of getting in, according to an industry trade group now monitoring the problem. Publishers say some fraudsters have even posed as academics to secure spots as guest editors for special issues and organizers of conferences, and then control the papers that are published there.

“The paper mill will find the weakest link and then exploit it mercilessly until someone notices," said Nick Wise, an engineer who has documented paper-mill advertisements on social media and posts examples regularly on X under the handle @author_for_sale.

The journal Science flagged the practice of buying authorship in 2013. The website Retraction Watch and independent researchers have since tracked paper mills through their advertisements and websites. Researchers say they have found them in multiple countries including Russia, Iran, Latvia, China and India. The mills solicit clients on social channels such as Telegram or Facebook, where they advertise the titles of studies they intend to submit, their fee and sometimes the journal they aim to infiltrate. Wise said he has seen costs ranging from as little as $50 to as much as $8,500.

When publishers become alert to the work, mills change their tactics.

“It’s like a virus mutating," said Dorothy Bishop, a psychologist at the University of Oxford, one of a multitude of researchers who track fraudulent science and has spotted suspected milled papers.

For Wiley, which publishes more than 2,000 journals, the problem came to light two years ago, shortly after it paid nearly $300 million for Hindawi, a company founded in Egypt in 1997 that included about 250 journals. In 2022, a little more than a year after the purchase, scientists online noticed peculiarities in dozens of studies from journals in the Hindawi family.

Scientific papers typically include citations that acknowledge work that informed the research, but the suspect papers included lists of irrelevant references. Multiple papers included technical-sounding passages inserted midway through, what Bishop called an “AI gobbledygook sandwich." Nearly identical contact emails in one cluster of studies were all registered to a university in China where few if any of the authors were based. It appeared that all came from the same source.

“The problem was much worse and much larger than anyone had realized," said David Bimler, a retired psychology researcher in Wellington, New Zealand, who started a spreadsheet of suspect Hindawi studies, which grew to thousands of entries.

Within weeks, Wiley said its Hindawi portfolio had been deeply hit.

Over the next year, in 2023, 19 Hindawi journals were delisted from a key database, Web of Science, that researchers use to find and cite papers relevant to their work, eroding the standing of the journals, whose influence is measured by how frequently its papers are cited by others. (One was later relisted.)

Wiley said it would shut down four that had been “heavily compromised by paper mills," and for months it paused publishing Hindawi special issues entirely as hundreds of papers were retracted. In December, Wiley interim President and Chief Executive Matthew Kissner warned investors of a $35 million to $40 million revenue drop for the 2024 fiscal year because of the problems with Hindawi.

According to Wiley, Tuesday’s closures are due to multiple factors, including a rebranding of the Hindawi journals and low submission rates to some titles. A company spokesperson acknowledged that some were affected by paper mills but declined to say how many. Eleven were among those that lost accreditation this past year on Web of Science.

“I don’t think that journal closures happen routinely," said Jodi Schneider, who studies scientific literature and publishing at the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign.

The extent of the paper mill problem has been exposed by members of the scientific community who on their own have collected patterns in faked papers to recognize this fraud at scale and developed tools to help surface the work.

One of those tools, the “Problematic Paper Screener," run by Guillaume Cabanac, a computer-science researcher who studies scholarly publishing at the Université Toulouse III-Paul Sabatier in France, scans the breadth of the published literature, some 130 million papers, looking for a range of red flags including “tortured phrases."

Cabanac and his colleagues realized that researchers who wanted to avoid plagiarism detectors had swapped out key scientific terms for synonyms from automatic text generators, leading to comically misfit phrases. “Breast cancer" became “bosom peril"; “fluid dynamics" became “gooey stream"; “artificial intelligence" became “counterfeit consciousness." The tool is publicly available.

Another data scientist, Adam Day, built “The Papermill Alarm," a tool that uses large language models to spot signs of trouble in an article’s metadata, such as multiple suspect papers citing each other or using similar templates and simply altering minor experimental details. Publishers can pay to use the tool.

With the scale of the paper-mill problem coming into ever better focus, it has forced publishers to adjust their operations.

IOP Publishing has expanded teams doing systematic checks on papers and invested in software to document and record peer review steps beyond their journals.

Wiley has expanded its team working to spot bad papers and announced its version of a paper-mill detector that scans for patterns such as tortured phrases. “It’s a top three issue for us today," said Jay Flynn, executive vice president and general manager of research and learning, at Wiley.

Both Wiley and Springer Nature have beefed up their screening protocols for editors of special issues after seeing paper millers impersonate legitimate researchers to win such spots.

Springer Nature has rejected more than 8,000 papers from a suspected paper mill and is continuing to monitor its work, according to Chris Graf, the publisher’s research-integrity director.

The incursion of paper mills has also forced competing publishers to collaborate. A tool launched through STM, the trade group of publishers, now checks whether new submissions were submitted to multiple journals at once, according to Joris van Rossum, product director who leads the “STM Integrity Hub," launched in part to beat back paper mills. Last fall, STM added Day’s “The Papermill Alarm" to its suite of tools.

While publishers are fighting back with technology, paper mills are using the same kind of tools to stay ahead.

“Generative AI has just handed them a winning lottery ticket," Eggleton of IOP Publishing said. “They can do it really cheap, at scale, and the detection methods are not where we need them to be. I can only see that challenge increasing."

I’ve been sitting on it for a while and I don’t think that the reason this is happening to TPN is because of the female protagonist. At least not the only reason.

It might be the dropped ratings during the serialization in WSJ (tried to find a source but nobody I found compiled all weekly ratings and I’m too lazy - so this may not be the case at all, I just heard it in some community convos) or/and that they just didn’t want to have to adapt a whole 150 more chapters.

Runtime / Assuming they’ll do roughly 40 each season like s1, that’s 4 more seasons, maybe 5 if they want to flesh the last stretch out as some people had hoped, which would be another.... like 6 years of runtime until it’s done, if they need 1,5 years for every season (as the head of CloverWorks said in Joey’s interview). Even if we say like 2-2,5 years for two 24-ep seasons, it’s still about 4-5 years) This is all based on knowledge I’ve heard and I haven’t read the manga.

I can’t recall any anime production going this far after the manga already ended, but I’m also not on top of every manga in existence.

Like... BNHA Manga, which keeps getting more seasons, is still ongoing. Literally the biggest / most mainstream anime right now, Attack On Titan, also still has an ongoing manga as the final season is happening AND on top of that the committee/publisher literally forced whatever studio to finish it on tought deadlines until now - that’s why WIT dropped it.

“The staff overworked to meet Kodansha’s deadlines.” [x]

It seems to be a big deal that the manga is still ongoing. Funny because apparently, the anime wasn’t told the ending so now the final season isn’t even the final season and they’ll probably adapt the ending in a movie or final season part 2 (that’s so funny to me please). LIKE WHAT IS THAT? why couldn’t they wait for the manga to complete or pace it so they’d have the time to do the ending too? Clearly ongoing manga is a big deal.

Counter Examples / I do think the haikyuu manga ended last year and I think the anime is still continuing but I’m not deep enough into it to know if that was/is the last season or if it’s a full adaption.

Demon Slayer also ended and it’s getting a second season. But Demon Slayer is also really big and the movie brought in a lot of money if I remember correctly. And it did end in May 2020, that’s true, so it’s been a while, but HAVE YOU SEEN THOSE SALES CHARTS. DS is too big internationally, it could probably carry itself through all that. It’s also a lot more action-y and lends itself to “epic” merch, so... yeah.

Beastars I think is also done, but S2 is happening right now and we’ll see if we get more - but since Netflix is involved who are pretty disconnected from the overall anime industry and mostly want stuff for their catalog, I think as long as the SHOW itself does well, we won’t have to worry. So I don’t think it’s fair to compare that here.

There’s also the remakes, like FMA:BH, Fruits basket and Sailor Moon Crystal, one of which is.... not that good; and for the others,,, yeah I don’t really know how economy works but I could imagine either a “re-birth” for Merch or the brand overall or just.... passionate people who wanted to see it re-done. I know for SMC, the author herself provided some if not all of the budget iirc.

.

TLDR; we cannot blame it solely on misogyny, I think. It sadly is just relevancy to the overall brand (hype is biggest when everyone is either engaged in the brand by anime or manga, manga falls away because it’s finished, and then it depends on the producers and other people to be engaged enough to carry on, possibly for years more). TBH, Anime industry kinda cringe. I rest my.... thoughts.
