Five pillars
Every check, with its source
Where a check was decided by reading the journal's homepage or its ISSN Portal record, we keep what we read: the page's SHA-256 fingerprint, the time, and the words that decided it.

Major gaps or warning signs. Before submitting, ask the editor about the failed items; if your institution has a journal policy, this journal probably does not meet it yet.

Before you submit
Journals now screen submissions for assistant-written text, paper-mill phrases, invented references and reused figures. See the same signals first, with the evidence — the manuscript is read once and discarded.
Manuscript Screen →Are you the editor?
Fix every item above with the Smart Scholars tools — Journal Audit, GetIndexed and DOI Doctor — and the rating updates on the next check: a rating older than 7 days is made again when it is opened, and you can re-check it at once from My journals.
