Since 2018, and as part of the global movement towards open science and knowledge as a public good, the Arab Council for the Social Sciences (ACSS) has been working to promote norms and practices of social science research data management (RDM) and sharing among social scientists, information specialists, and research institutions in the Arab region.
In a few weeks, the Rogue Scholar science blog archive will reach the milestone of 25,000 archived science blog posts, each with a DOI and metadata and searchable via full-text search. With this number of blog posts, it is now time to start using a dedicated content type, and last week Rogue Scholar started the migration to the B logPost content type.
En rOpenSci, nuestra misión es y lo conseguimos mediante Creemos que ha llegado el momento de reiterar y aclarar por qué y qué significa esto.

Thou shalt not suffer a flaky test to live, because it’s annoying, counterproductive, and dangerous: one day it might fail for real, and you won’t notice. Here’s what to do.
(please cite this post as https://doi.org/10.59350/nxkfm-ghk92) Today many researchers are not only capturing new knowledge in papers; they are also creating elements of infrastructure, such as datasets, software, and services. However, traditional methods of support and evaluation haven’t made a concomitant change.
Retractions and corrections from Retraction Watch are now available in Crossref’s REST API. Back in September 2023, we announced the acquisition of the Retraction Watch database with an ongoing shared service. Since then, they have sent us regular updates, which are publicly available as a csv file. Our aim has always been to better integrate these retractions with our existing metadata, and today we’ve met that goal.
