Sorry, I do not want to be rude, but I absolutely cannot understand these suggestions that Zootaxa should write a polite letter to Clarivate and discuss about the issue.

What the hell is this Clarivate at all? An American private company who declared itself as the single authority who is authorized to evaluate all scientific journals of the world in all scientific fields? What?? How?? Why?? When?? Why should anyone accept their methodology? Why should anyone accept the lists they produce? Why should everyone pay for the rank lists they provide? I would rather say, Clarivate should feel very happy if the legal departments of Elsevier etc. will not file a court claim or lawsuit for damaging their reputation by accusing them with manipulating their citations, and if I were a publisher I would most certainly do so! Really should we ask Clarivate nicely and politely to change their mind? Why? Where the hell does Clarivate's right to evaluate journals come from at all, who endowed them with this right, and why should anyone be interested about their evaluations? Why should anyone believe that what Clarivate is doing is serving the good of the community and not their own business interests? Why should the whole scientific publication industry serve Clarivate's business goals?

I really cannot understand this. For me it seems something like a state capture: a private company is arbitrarily monopolizing a complete field entirely without any authorization and any legitimacy, and governmental bodies follow without a single critical remark. How is this possible?

I would rather suggest the large and influential publishers to use this story to cause a big scandal and try to break the self-declared monopoly of Clarivate. Nobody asked Clarivate to do this, and noone should be interested in the opinion of such a suspicious private enterprise working along their own murky business interests.

Dear colleagues,

 

Zootaxa has become, in many ways, the flagship journal of our field. In addition to its very broad mission and superbly inclusive priorities, it has been a trailblazer on many fronts, including pioneering digital publication as a scientific medium, and eliminating page charges for authors. It truly represents our endeavor, and all zootaxonomists everywhere.

 

Zootaxa’s coverage has tremendous breadth. It is worldwide in scope, and pulls in authorial participants from nearly every country who are seeking to characterize their own biodiversity. In truth, Zootaxa’s charge addresses the entirety of the macrozoobiota, a massive branch of the Earth Life Tree. In addition to understanding the enlightening characteristics of taxonomy as a science that have already been raised (e.g., it is one of the oldest sciences, and it has its own canonized Code), we can take stock in these other points, that taxonomy’s domain is immense, and Zootaxa’s role as a conduit for the publication of taxonomy is of fundamental, abiding value for all generations henceforth who desire to comprehend the globe’s taxonomic diversity.

 

Therefore, I conclude that there is no reason for us to hang our heads, wring our hands, or cry into our hats, because one narrow-minded, short-term, profit-driven marketer has temporarily tweaked its advocacy formula to penalize ZT. Rather, we should see this as an opportunity for our collective voices to be heard.

 

Let us all understand: the IF metric actually violates our fundamental motivations and first principles as taxonomists and scientists, by commoditizing evidence-based inquiry.

 

The original purpose of IF was to provide libraries an accurate estimate of how many copies of an article it ought to stock on its shelves (source: I. Gherghel). Later, it was co-opted by admins to serve as a proxy measure of the value of an article’s worth. Yet we all know that IF doesn’t represent the value of alpha and beta taxonomy, whose worth is, in many ways, immeasurable to present and future generations.

 

Clarivate’s [possibly algorithm-based] judgment that self-citations in ZT are too high is utterly tangential to ZT’s worth as the premier venue of publication for much of the world’s taxonomists. Self-citations happen as they do in our field because they more-or-less accurately represent the history and precedent of research in that field. There is nothing untoward or intentionally self-serving about this process. Too few taxonomists are engaged in the precious but generally unpopular labor of working out the identities of a relatively modest assemblage of twigs on a chosen branch, and so will and must self-cite their own past work, if only to be honest bibliographers. 

 

Let us discuss solutions.

 

Firstly, all ideas merit consideration. And, I am loath to be unnecessarily negative here. But, by way of clarity and vote-casting, I will suggest that the following two ideas may be less effective.

 

Ceasing to publish new names for one year as a sort of protest. Such a boycott only serves to “shoot ourselves in the foot”, by further limiting our output. Our science must go on. Many researchers cannot afford to simply skip a year of publishing altogether. Further, in the event that such an effort falls on deaf ears (likely, for various reasons pointed out by others), it only serves to silence our own voice, not amplify it.

 

My colleague suggests a slight variation of this strategy, which is for ZT to continue to receive and review manuscripts, but to delay final publication of all manuscripts for one year until a new IF is provided, so that authors will not be penalized for publishing without an IF. This approach, of course, presumes that ZT will be relisted next year on Clarivate, which is not a certainty.

 

Changing our citation standards to meet the metric. This is a slippery slope toward eventual impotence, because, on a fundamental level, the metric being used doesn’t serve the aims of our particular discipline. If we kowtow to a non-representative measure, it will only lead to a weakening of our publications, not a streamlining and enhancement. Taxonomists have many practical and honest justifications for self-citation, explained above and by other editors. We should continue this practice as long as it is warranted by the existing taxonomic impediment. If you have earlier published articles relevant to the publication in preparation, continue to cite those previous articles.

 

Among other ideas mentioned, I favor the following.

 

1.       A formal, well-written letter from the senior ZT board be sent to Clarivate arguing for and elucidating our claims; and

2.       A shower of emails from ZT subject editors and authors also be sent to Clarivate; and

3.       A popular article addressing the issues be written for publication in an editorial section of a mainstream news outlet.  

 

With regards to item 1, it is right and important for the leadership of our body to address Clarivate, tangential as the latter might be, regarding the effects of their novel policy on our functionality.

 

With regards to item 2, it has the potential to be extremely effective. In this social-media-based, thumbs-up-or-down-oriented digital age, perceived voice count has impact. A flood of letters from a very broad user base cannot be ignored. Further, if the number of emails to Clarivate is particularly high, such a shower of intense feedback from a particular community (ours) about a societally-relevant topic (biodiversity science) could warrant coverage by the mainstream media, if it is brought to their attention (perhaps by item 3). This has happened repeatedly with other niche userbases that united in opinion; they have targeted various policy-makers (banks; television channels; submarine-naming-committees) and been heard (in our case this would be for the better, not for the worse), and their views discussed in the mainstream press, exerting great public pressure.

 

To accomplish item 2 above, a (i) internal form email and (ii) external form email can be prepared by and on behalf of the ZT editors, which we can send to our respective constituency (all those who have published under our editorship within the past 5 years). The internal form email will inform the authors of the problem and the stakes at hand, and will invite the authors to write to Clarivate. The external form email will contain suggested content for them to send. Authors can be invited to personally sign and send, and to cc their respective ZT editor, as well as either the general ZT editor, or an address designated for this function, in order to count hits.

 

Regardless of whether any of the above efforts are successful in changing this year’s delisting, our voices should be heard. It is a necessity for both the pride of our community, and as a declaration of our principles to our global stakeholders (human civilization, governments, conservation policy makers, etc.).

 

May I close by proposing another strategy for the consideration of our body?

 

As my colleague enjoined, we scientists don’t need a metric beyond peer review. And that is true for our own purposes. Nevertheless, we live in a capitalistic age of database-powered, formula-driven appraisal, and the admins who evaluate our existence will continually clamor for a cubit.

 

Perhaps, then, the time has come for us, as a consortium of like-minded, co-endeavoring colleagues, to take back control. That is, we ought to:


4.       Envision, design, create, optimize, and implement an impact metric of our own.


I am inclined to think that among our membership we have the skills and the wherewithal to do such a thing. If we trail-blaze a field-centric (e.g., all peer-reviewed taxonomy journals of the world) measure of scientific impact that takes existing IF algorithms, but supplements them with additional, taxonomy-based variables we know to be of objective and evidence-based scientific value, we can raise up a more authentic and impartial (by removing bias) tool than what we’re being offered. Innovation, in this instance, may require a schism ‘in the fold’ of scientific publishing. If crafted carefully, and implemented well, such a tool could be marketed to other taxonomy journals as an intra-community resource, and finally to administrators as a supplementary or even substitutional yardstick. This is new ground that ZT could break.

 

No doubt there are many cons to this last idea, but maybe also several pros, and perhaps these are worthy of some debate.

 

In quest of solutions, and yours in biodiversity science,

 

Joshua

Dear all,

Of course the idea of "uniting the fragmented taxonomic community" would make sense only if all other journals publishing taxonomic papers, or at least the main ones, supported the protestation against this iniquitous decision!

If some of them thought that they will benefit from it, this would be stupid as, as was aptly put by David, they will also be strongly impacted by this decision.

We are here in front of a very common strategic question, just like in all wars. The problem is that to understand this we must realise that what is at stake is not a 'mistake' but part of an old war against taxonomy by colleagues, institutions and journals that imagine they will recover for themselves the funds, salaries or subscribers of taxonomy.

This is a very simple 'sociobiological' question: will taxonomists favour collaboration or competition?

So far, many of them have chosen competition: I don't care if my neighbour falls, I will survive, because I am better than him/her.

But in most cases this results in being detrimental to both.

Attacking Zootaxa was in fact very clever: it is always better to attack the 'leader', because this will weaken also the weakest ones.

Would we be able to unite the taxonomic community, including the editors and publishers of other taxonomic journals, to support Zootaxa, or not? I think this is a basic question.

No doubts this is an insult to us and the decision is unjustified. The question is – how we react to this decision: walk away ignoring them, or raise our voice as a large community? If the first we may face a large withdrawals of submissions to Zootaxa. IF is important for a large number of submitters and I already had someone asking me for explanation why Zootaxa was removed. Also, as David pointed out other scientific journals may be impacted by the same incompetent act, so I don’t think this is an acceptable option.

 

If the second we need to do this by protecting our science and not letting others interfering with it. In an earlier message Alain suggested to unite the fragmented taxonomic community which is an idea I fully support. If you all agree with this too then we have to be thinking of how to achieve it. I personally am thinking of contacting all of the authors who have submitted manuscripts to me for the time when was section editor for Odonata (since beginning of 2017), inform them on Clarivate’s decision and ask if they would like to support the ‘raising voice’ action (whatever forms it takes). Will also ask them to individually confirm to me if they would allow for their email addresses to be revealed should we decide to compile a list of taxonomists impacted by this decision in order to show how big our community really is.

The decision of Clarivate is evidently and objectively unjustified even according to their own standards. The methodology they use for calculating IF does allow high percent of self-citations if there is a reason for it, e.g. the journal is the only one in its category. It would have been enough to check the number of papers published in Zootaxa compared to the number of papers published in all other journals on zoology, and the reason of the high self-citation (namely that Zootaxa publishes the overwhelming majority of papers in the given field) could have became evident in an instant. I agree with Alain, it was done out of incompetence, and I also agree with him that it is an intolerable insult for the whole scientific field.

 

By the way, not only Zootaxa will suffer from this decision, but all other journals publishing in zoological taxonomy-systematics: if Zootaxa will be kicked out from JCI and Web of Science, then all zoological journals will have a dramatic drop in their citations, since a very large part of their external citations come from Zootaxa (exactly because Zootaxa publishes so many papers), and accordingly the IF-s of all zoological journals will fall strongly.

 

With best wishes,

 

David Redei

Dear all,

 

Sorry but most of the arguments put forward in this discussion (the 'algorithm' story, "how could we please Clarivate", "after all why not use other metrics", and the usual refrain: "in order to be recognised as good scientists, taxonomists should ALSO do something else than taxonomy, like phylogeny, ecology, 'evolutionary biology', biogeography, what else - in other words, they should NOT do taxonomy") are just diversions and submissiveness. They will not help Zootaxa and, by way of consequence, our community, but, rather contribute to their downgrading. 

 

We should be proud to be taxonomists, as we are the only ones who try to "save" something (specimens, tissues, photographs, descriptions) of the vanishing biodiversity of our planet, which does not worry so much most other biologists who think that it is enough to study Drosophila melanogaster, to use "big data" to build models and to make "phylogenetic trees" based on a handful of species to understand biodiversity, and to "save" a few big sized mammals and birds to exonerate mankind for its unprecedented 'speciocide' - that no one in fact cares about.

 

The truth is that this decision of Clarivate is an intolerable insult to the community of taxonomists and the discipline of taxonomy. We should retort to this with pride and humour, not abide and beat our chest.

 

If indeed the 'error' of Clarivate is due to their blind use of algorithms, this just shows that they are incompetent for the work they are doing, despite the considerable impact it has on the carriers of researchers and on the funding of labs and museums, and that we should claim proudly that we recommend to abandon altogether the resort to "metrics" to evaluate and promote our discipline.

 

Let's wake up, not bemoan!

 

Alain

I think what is meant is that zootaxa papers cite zootaxa papers - and
this is because there are not many other good journals left for alpha
taxonomy. Imagine there was only The Lancet for medicine they probably
would kick it out too. I think a letter is needed, especially to avoid a
possible removal from the Science Citation Index.
