Camel case

[edit]

I'm in favour of writing simply Citescore. Camel case spelling looks too much of a marketing trick here. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 141.20.217.194 (talk) 08:36, 19 August 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, that's a common marketing trick. I agree that Citescore should be the way to write it here Pot (talk) 13:08, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

example for new calculation is wrong

[edit]

The calculation for CS_2021 seems wrong. According to the formula it should be the following: (CS_2021 = CS_2021 + CS_2020 + CS_2019 + CS_2018) / (Publications_2021 + Publication_2020 + Publications_2019 + Publications_2018) 92.201.107.255 (talk) 21:56, 7 February 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The graph

[edit]

The graph showing "CiteScore vs. IF for American Chemical Society (ACS, green) and Nature group journals (blue)" has no source reference. Who published it, and where the numbers come from?

Also, I am not sure I understand it. It shows that Nature benefits from IF, but the stated reason does no look clear. It says that Nature's disadvantage when using Citescore is due to Nature including many editorials (which, I suppose, get few citations thus diluting the journals' CiteScore but not the journals' IF). If that is the case, the reasoning should be more explicit and cite a source. Pot (talk) 13:07, 12 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
