Database of Withdrawn Preprints Aims to Improve Research Quality
- Forecast for 6 months: In the next 6 months, we can expect to see the development of more automated tools that flag potential errors in preprints, leading to improved research quality and reduced instances of withdrawn studies.
- Forecast for 1 year: Within the next year, we anticipate that the WithdrarXiv database will become a valuable resource for researchers, providing insights into common pitfalls and areas for improvement in research practices.
- Forecast for 5 years: In the next 5 years, we foresee a significant shift towards more rigorous and transparent research practices, with the use of automated tools and databases like WithdrarXiv becoming the norm.
- Forecast for 10 years: By the end of the decade, we predict that the scientific community will have made significant strides in reducing the number of withdrawn studies, with a corresponding increase in the quality and reliability of research findings.
