Aside from its witty name, WithdrarXiv gives a pretty interesting insight:
"Unlike biomedical fields where plagiarism often leads
withdrawals, most arXiv retractions stem from factual or methodological errors (37%) and incomplete work (19%)."

I think that this is a reasonable use of preprints: “The impetus to publish on preprint servers is to be the first, and not necessarily to be completely correct”
Journals should prioritise quality and leave speed to preprint platforms.

Researchers have launched ‘WithdrarXiv’ — a database of more than 14,000 studies that have been withdrawn from the preprint server #arXiv. I find it encouraging that most were withdrawn because someone figured out there was an error. www.nature.com/articles/d41...
