The plumbing behind an effective retraction alerts system incorporating @nisoinfo.bsky.social CREC, @orcid.org and GetFTR - first session of #R2RCONF Day 2

Interesting to note that generative AI (just mentioned) has not had much airtime at #CopimConference. #R2RConf was obsessed by it.

#R2RConf panel is discussing how to get evidence into practice - taking into account the human factors

You can catch our very own @kirahopkins.bsky.social & Dr Rose Harris-Birtill from @openlibhums.bsky.social at 4pm tomorrow: 'Avoiding the Seventy Year Itch: ‘Transformative’ Open Access via Diamond Funding Models'

We are at the lovely BMA House venue, getting organised for #R2RConf starting tomorrow morning. Our admin has been slightly complicated by 5 people registering TODAY (so far). But latecomers are very welcome.
You could join us too!

In just a few hours the Great Hall at BMA House in London will be filled with Librarians, Editors, Publishers, Researchers and many more, working together to improve scholarly communications, at #R2RConf.
See you there?

A clear diagram like this helps a lot in explaining how several initatives work together to increase trust in research: CUSAP, GetFTR, ORCID, and CREC.

Today at #R2RConf , in our Debate, a publisher is trying to persuade us that publishers are no longer necessary, and a library director is trying to persuade us that they are very much needed.

Great to see sponsors coming on board to support #R2RConf now that 2025 is getting started.

@tobyabgreen.bsky.social this made me think of your policy panel @r2rconf.bsky.social #r2rconf. Your pain is our pain 🤣 (although neither circle has publications or research!)
there is no clearer universal across academic institutions than the dysfunction of a university website — not a day goes by that I don't think of this xkcd

Great start to the Peer Review Innovation workshop. Working with feedback from last year on challenges, plan to get to solutions by the end of tomorrow! #R2RConf

Sorry to be late to highlight this, but it's always great when an #R2RConf workshop publishes the results of their collaboration.

Someone suggesting ORCID putting marks of concern on people's profiles in response to retractions. Answer is no. (Good)

Main reason is it's researcher controlled, and for researchers. Researchers can always edit & delete things from their own profile.

Big shout out to @nikeshgo.bsky.social now I've discovered his bluesky handle. Stunningly good presentation. #R2RConf

The ‘what should we do to fix peer review’ debate doesn’t appear to have moved on much in 20 years #R2RConf
February 24, 2026 at 12:49 PM
I'm always very concerned once people start talking about shaming and judging people for retractions. We want to encourage people to highlight concerns in their own work.

Not all retractions are based on bad actors. Point from panel that retractions are just to correct scholarly record.

Thought provoking keynote from Prof John Willinsky on ethics and integrity in scholarly publishing and open source research to kick us off at #R2RConf

I'm quite happy for people to be thinking about how to use AI/machine learning more generally - but can we remember that LLMs are for generating plausible text not for providing accurate answers.

Do you think you are participating in the best #R2RConf workshop? Why?

This is not a metaphor for #colonialism. It is colonialism. #NikeshGosalia #R2RConf And every minute it gets worse. Compounding with each new training instance. AI is being optimized for specific user base. Non-english speakers not "seen" in these tools.

Our Managing Director @rschrobuk.bsky.social will be at @r2rconf.bsky.social today. Feel free to make contact and catch up. #R2RConf
February 25, 2025 at 10:17 AM
We are too! But the response to #R2RConf is usually very positive....
February 25, 2025 at 6:15 AM
Breaking out of my BlueSky silence to announce that I’m at #R2RConf @r2rconf.bsky.social today and tomorrow. Revelations and provocations to follow (possibly).
