公式スパム? "2016 Highly Cited Researchers"→誤配信でした

正直、私の論文がそんなに参照されているとは思えない。同じように疑心暗鬼な人がいっぱいなハッシュタグ


twitter.com

一応、メールに書いてあるサイト ( app.info.science.thomsonreuters.biz )はトムソンロイターのサイトっぽいのだけど。いったい?以下にメールのWebページ版に記載されている文面を転載。「MY_FIRSTNAME」というところに個々人の名前が入るみたい。

Dear MY_FIRSTNAME,

I would like to extend congratulations on being named a 2016 Highly Cited Researcher and to announce the availability of the official 2016 list.
You were selected as a Highly Cited Researcher because your work has been identified as being among the most valuable and significant in the field. Very few researchers earn this distinction – writing the greatest number of reports, officially designated by Essential Science Indicators as Highly Cited Papers. In addition, these reports rank among the top 1% most cited works for their subject field and year of publication, earning them the mark of exceptional impact.
Now that you have achieved this designation, you will always retain your Highly Cited Researcher status. Share your recognition!

Add this badge to your website, LinkedIn profile and email signature

I applaud your contributions to the advancement of scientific discovery and innovation and wish you continued success.
Best regards,

Vin Caraher

誤配信だったとのこと。機能までファーストネームで呼びあっていたのに、一気に距離をあけられた感。まあ、データベースから名前とってくるようにシステム改修する時間がなかったんだろうけど。

Dear Researcher,

We recently sent you an email about being named a Highly Cited Researcher. This was sent in error. Please accept our sincere apologies.

We’ve identified the error in our system that caused this and were able to resolve it quickly, ensuring it won't be repeated.

Highly Cited Researchers derive from papers that are defined as those in the top 1% by citations for their field and publication year in the Web of Science. As leaders in the field of bibliometrics we appreciate the effort required to reach this achievement and celebrate those who have done so this year.

Sincerely,

Clarivate Analytics
