Looking at this discussion, I have refrained from adding the journals cited in the pl.wp article. Limnetica was never had an en.wp article; Organisms Diversity & Evolution seems OK. I would seek more opinions about this.--Shirt58 (talk) 🦘 09:32, 21 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]

@Shirt58:, I think you're misinterpreting that discussion, which concerned whether ResearchGate was a reliable source for information about a journal. And for specific journal being discussed, the information ResearchGate provided was just copied from the publisher of the journal.

Having the full text of a journal article hosted on ResearchGate isn't a badge of shame. ResearchGate hosts articles from excellent journals as well as articles from poor journals. Google Scholar results don't discriminate on journal quality, but I start off with the assumption that journal articles listed on Google Scholar are reliable sources.

When I add a scientific journal article as a reference on Wikipedia, I include the DOI as basically the canonical link to the publisher's webpage for the article. If the full text version on the publisher's website is paywalled to the general public, I try to add a non-paywalled link to the full text as well. The place I most frequently find non-paywalled links is ResearchGate. Plantdrew (talk) 23:51, 22 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
