Management-Withdrawal-Policy

Certainly. Here’s the updated content: — It is a recognized standard in scholarly publishing that the Editor-in-Chief has full and independent authority to decide which submitted manuscripts are accepted for publication. This decision is made in alignment with the journal’s editorial policies and is subject to applicable legal standards, including those concerning libel, copyright infringement, and plagiarism.
his principle underscores the importance of preserving the scholarly archive as a permanent and trustworthy record of academic work. Once an article is published, it is expected to remain accessible, accurate, and unchanged whenever possible. However, in rare and exceptional situations, it may become necessary to retract or remove an article. Such decisions are taken with utmost seriousness and only under specific circumstances, such as:
  • Confirmed instances of plagiarism or research misconduct
  • Significant errors that invalidate the research findings
  • Legal concerns such as defamation or copyright infringement

Article Withdrawal

Articles accepted but not yet officially published may be withdrawn if they
  • Contain significant errors
  • Are duplicate submissions
  • Violate publishing ethics

Withdrawn articles are replaced with a notice and a link to the withdrawal policy.

Article Retraction

Global Journals retracts articles only in rare cases, following recognized scholarly and library standards.

  • A retraction note titled “Retraction: [article title]” is published in a later issue and listed in the table of contents.
  • In the online version, a link to the original article is provided.
  • The article is preceded by a screen displaying the retraction note.
  • The original PDF remains unchanged but is watermarked “Retracted” on each page.

Withdrawn articles are replaced with a notice and a link to the withdrawal policy.

Article Removal

In rare cases, an article may be removed from the online database when

  • It contains defamatory content
  • It infringes legal rights
  • It is subject to a court order or credible legal threat
  • It poses serious risk if acted upon

In such instances, the article’s text is replaced with a notice stating it has been removed for legal reasons, while the metadata (title and authors) remains accessible.

Article Replacement

In cases where the research paper, if acted upon, might pose serious losses, the authors of the original research paper may wish to take back the faulty original and replace it with a corrected version. In these conditions the procedures for retraction will be followed with the difference that the database retraction notice will publish a link to the corrected re-published research paper and a history of the document.
