@Villavelius @BrainStraining I don't understand why this (self-plagiarism) is being qualified (uniquely) in cash.

@o_guest@BrainStraining Because that's the main concrete problem. Not much of a problem as far as scientific progress is concerned. -
@Villavelius@BrainStraining I think there is where we might disagree. Because even though a lot is not zero sum, funding kind of sadly is. -
@Villavelius@BrainStraining To clarify: "knowledge sharing" prob doesn't suffer much - but science in general prob a small amount, yes. -
@o_guest@BrainStraining By a small amount, yes. If they get more funding on the basis of inflated publication lists, funders are complicit. -
@o_guest@BrainStraining Which is truly sad. -
@o_guest@BrainStraining And I'm certainly not a fan of sneaky self-plagiarism. Openness/transparency is required in all science publishing. -
@Villavelius@BrainStraining This is obviously super sneaky & they probably would have been in trouble if it had been a more recent case... -
@o_guest@BrainStraining Different times. Ante-#openaccess. Maybe they felt they needed to enlarge their audience. - 7 more replies
