Article Withdrawal Policy

Last updated: 2024-09-01

International Journal of Machine Design and Manufacturing understands the importance of upholding the integrity and completeness of the scholarly record to benefit researchers and librarians. We are committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.

ijmdm adheres to the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles to publish with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies established by the ijmdm’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations regarding issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.

Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions reserved for exceptional circumstances, where clear evidence exists of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility for deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the ijmdm’s editorial board policies and legal requirements regarding libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, serving as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.

Article Retraction

Article retraction means that the editor of ijmdm is responsible for deciding whether an article should be retracted. Retractions occur in exceptional cases, such as instances of fraudulent data or unethical research. If retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. This retraction notice will be linked to the original article and prominently displayed on the ijmdm’s website.

The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is marked as “retracted” in all versions, including those in the ijmdm’s archives. Additionally, the Journal will inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction.

If the Journal becomes aware of a potential issue with an article, such as data or ethical concerns, it will investigate the matter promptly and take appropriate action, including retraction if necessary.

Scenerios

Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be
retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be
retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by
conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that
significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously
published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal Issues: If an article violates copyright laws or contains defamatory content, it may be retracted.

Consequences

Manuscript retraction is a serious matter in scholarly publishing. ijmdm aims to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record and therefore has established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.

Retractions may be necessary if:
- Clear evidence indicates that findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including data fabrication, manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
- There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
- The manuscript was published in error, due to a technical or administrative issue.

In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the ijmdm’s editor, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, considering input and guidelines from external bodies.

If a manuscript is retracted, it will be marked as such, and a retraction notice will be prominently published in ijmdm’s with a clear explanation of the reasons. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record but will be marked as retracted, and its content should not be used or cited.

Consequences

Manuscript removal will lead to the withdrawal of the article from our publication and its permanent removal from our online archives. We may also impose sanctions on the author(s) and/or publisher(s), including a ban on future submissions to ijmdm.

It is important to note that manuscript removal is a last-resort measure. We encourage all authors to adhere to our ethical standards and guidelines to ensure the integrity of our publications.

Article Replacement

ijmdm’s policy regarding article replacement is that it is an uncommon practice, considered only in exceptional cases. If an author identifies a major error in their published article, they should contact the ijmdm’s editorial office to request a correction or retraction.

If the error is significant and cannot be addressed with a simple correction, and the author provides a corrected version, the editorial board may consider replacing the original article. The final decision rests with the editorial board, depending on the error’s nature and its impact on the article.

Please note that article replacement is not a routine practice and is reserved for exceptional circumstances. The Journal may also require a fee to cover replacement costs.

Scenarios for Replacement

Correction of significant errors or omissions in the original article.
Addition of new data or findings that substantially alter the article’s conclusions or implications.

Article Retraction

Article retraction means that the editor of ijepda is responsible for deciding whether an article should be retracted. Retractions occur in exceptional cases, such as instances of fraudulent data or unethical research. If retraction is deemed necessary, the Journal will publish a retraction notice that identifies the retracted article and the reason for the retraction. This retraction notice will be linked to the original article and prominently displayed on the ijepda’s website.

The Journal will also ensure that the retracted article is marked as “retracted” in all versions, including those in the ijepda’s archives. Additionally, the Journal will inform any indexers or databases that have indexed the article about the retraction.

Scenerios

Plagiarism: If an article is found to have plagiarized content from other sources, it may be
retracted.
Data fabrication: If an article is found to have fabricated or falsified data, it may be
retracted.
Ethical violations: If an article is found to have violated ethical standards, such as by
conducting research on human subjects without proper consent, it may be retracted.
Errors or inaccuracies: If an article is found to contain errors or inaccuracies that
significantly affect the conclusions, it may be retracted.
Duplication: If an article is found to be substantially similar to another previously
published article, it may be retracted as a duplicate publication.
Legal Issues: If an article violates copyright laws or contains defamatory content, it may be retracted.

Consequences

Manuscript retraction is a serious matter in scholarly publishing. ijepda aims to ensure the accuracy and integrity of the scientific record and therefore has established policies to govern the retraction of manuscripts.

Retractions may be necessary if:
- Clear evidence indicates that findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including data fabrication, manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
- There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
- The manuscript was published in error, due to a technical or administrative issue.

In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the ijepda’s editor, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, considering input and guidelines from external bodies.

If a manuscript is retracted, it will be marked as such, and a retraction notice will be prominently published in ijepda’s with a clear explanation of the reasons. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record but will be marked as retracted, and its content should not be used or cited.

- Clear evidence indicates that findings are unreliable or fraudulent, including data fabrication, manipulation, plagiarism, or duplicate publication.
- There is a serious error or flaw in the study that invalidates the findings.
- The manuscript was published in error, due to a technical or administrative issue.

In such cases, the retraction process will be initiated by the rrjocb’s editor, in consultation with the author(s) and any relevant third parties. The editor will make the final decision on whether to retract the manuscript, considering input and guidelines from external bodies.

If a manuscript is retracted, it will be marked as such, and a retraction notice will be prominently published in rrjocb’s with a clear explanation of the reasons. The retracted manuscript will remain available online as a historical record but will be marked as retracted, and its content should not be used or cited.

International Journal of Computational Biology and Bioinformatics understands the importance of upholding the integrity and completeness of the scholarly record to benefit researchers and librarians. We are committed to maintaining trust in the authority of our electronic archive.

ijcbb adheres to the fundamental principle of scholarly communication, which places the sole and independent responsibility for deciding which articles to publish with the Journal’s editor. This decision-making process is guided by the policies established by the ijcbb’s editorial board and is subject to legal obligations regarding issues such as libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.

Article withdrawal, retraction, removal, or replacement are actions reserved for exceptional circumstances, where clear evidence exists of ethical violations, serious errors, or misconduct in published research articles. The responsibility for deciding which articles to publish lies solely with the editor, who is guided by the ijcbb’s editorial board policies and legal requirements regarding libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism. Once an article has been published, it becomes part of the scholarly archive, serving as a permanent record of scholarly transactions, and published articles are expected to remain unaltered as much as possible.
