Retraction Watch has witnessed a retraction boom since its founding 12 years ago. But the scientific community must do much more.
When my colleague Adam Marcus, editorial director at Medscape, and I launched the blog Retraction Watch in 2010, we didn’t realize we were riding a wave. At the time, we thought journals were issuing about three retractions per month. But that hadn’t been true for a decade. In 2010, they were averaging about 45 a month. Last year saw nearly 300 a month.
Retraction Watch has seen the retraction process change dramatically over the past decade. We’ve come to feel that the community is falling short.Formal retractions already feel dated, similar to the stubbornly inefficient letters to editors that formed the bulk of efforts to correct the record in years past. Today, rather than sending a letter, critics take to social media, PubPeer.com and the larger media to voice their concerns.
