Why were my papers unlisted?

As part of our commitment to maintaining high quality standards, ORKG system automatically unlists papers that do not meet certain criteria. We understand that this may be frustrating for some users, but we believe it is necessary to ensure the accuracy and relevance of the content in ORKG.

If you find that one of your papers has been unlisted, it is likely because it did not meet one or more of the following criteria:

  • No Title: Your paper must have a title. This is important because it helps users understand what your paper is about and allows them to quickly find it when searching for relevant content. If your paper does not have a title, it will not be listed in the ORKG.

  • No Author: Your paper must have at least one author in its metadata. If your paper does not have an author, it will not be listed in the ORKG.

  • No contribution with properties: Your paper must have at least one contribution with a property. This means that your paper must have at least one statement, or other content element that provides valuable information to the reader. If your paper does not havea contribution with a property, it will not be listed in the ORKG.

If your paper has been unlisted, you can easily fix the issue by ensuring that it meets all of the criteria listed above. Once you have made the necessary changes, your paper will be automatically relisted in ORKG after some time.

We understand that unlisting papers can be frustrating, but we believe that it is necessary to ensure the accuracy and relevance of the content in ORKG. By maintaining high quality standards, we can provide users with the best possible experience and ensure that they can find the content they need quickly and easily.
