Section needed?[edit]

I seem to think a section is not needed because the article is tiny. But someone else thinks not. Why's that? Thanks. Biosthmors (talk) 01:17, 15 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

European Business & Management[edit]

European Business & Management. ISSN number 2575-5811 redirects to here, is that accurate? More info https://portal.issn.org/resource/ISSN/2575-5811 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.112.177.218 (talk) 15:53, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, see http:// sciencepublishinggroup.com/journal/index?journalid=324 [copy-paste and remove the space]. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 16:10, 23 May 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hatnote bloat[edit]

The number of hatnotes on this article is ludicrous. You can barely see the article when you get here. Do you really expect people to search through all of those? Praemonitus (talk) 16:48, 8 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

That is representative of the publishing group's tactics of appearing to sound like or present as other more established journals. While a bit ridiculous, the clarifications are important and rather essential to properly discriminate against those other journals. Himay81 (talk) 17:53, 20 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]

"Science Frontiers" fringe publishing[edit]

See .^[1] Frank Joseph - member of the American Nazi Party then started writing fringe nonsense.

@Doug Weller: That's a different Science Frontiers that isn't affiliated with SPG, AFAICT. It is cited a few times on Wikipedia though [1] [2]. Headbomb {t · c · p · b} 21:34, 15 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry about that. I’ll look at those links tomorrow perhaps. Doug Weller talk 21:38, 15 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]
