Number of editors vs. number of articles for Frontiers journals #dataviz
@theosanderson Where are the data from? For Frontiers, "Review Editors" are just reviewers.
@theosanderson So how does one make money from having a lot of editors? 🤔
@theosanderson Way more editors than articles is a HUGE red flag. Consider this creationist journal. Compare the number of articles to the number of editors: bio-complexity.org/ojs/index.php/…
@theosanderson 😀 Its like VPs in finance now. Everyone's an editor. Not sure why people agree? Never mind.. I know.. even I'm guilty of contributing to one of those red bars with a certain strategic use case in mind & then after that was achieved not caring enough to withdraw.🤷♂️
@theosanderson how in the hell do they have *1250* editors for a virology journal?!?
