Jun 3, 2014 at 14:30 comment added ff524 @eykanal spot checks of a couple of issues, usually. Occasionally a reader brings a specific plagiarized article to his attention.
Jun 3, 2014 at 14:19 comment added eykanal @ff524 - Interesting. I wonder how he identifies that.
Jun 3, 2014 at 14:07 comment added ff524 @Jigg not at all. I'm just pointing out a self-selection bias that might make it less meaningful to compare the incidence of fraud in Beall's list journals vs other journals
Jun 3, 2014 at 14:02 comment added Cape Code @ff524 although not all of the publishers/journals listed by Beall have a documented history of plagiarism.
Jun 3, 2014 at 13:16 comment added ff524 One of Beall's criteria is "publishes plagiarized papers" so the list does self-select for that.
