    Receiving 100 citations from indexed journals is not a common occurrence, although it does happen very rarely, and it is even more uncommon for a non-indexed article. Given this, the purpose of this present study is to perform a bibliometric analysis of 100 cited Scopus articles to a non-Scopus indexed article, using a case study of the article titled “Authorship trends and collaboration pattern in the marine sciences literature: A scientometric study” which was published by Elango and Rajendran in the International Journal of Information Dissemination and Technology in 2012. On October 15, 2022, the Scopus database was searched with the article title in the references field, and the resulting bibliographic data was exported as a comma-separated values file. The tools utilized for this analysis were ScientoPy, the Bibliometrix R Package, and VOSviewer. Based on the findings, most of the cited articles were published within the last three years, and international researchers have given more recognition compared to Indian researchers. The most popular topics were found to be bibliometrics, bibliometric analysis, and bibliometrix. The fact that all 100 cited articles were published across various subject disciplines used by Scopus to categorise sources demonstrates how well-established the citing article is within the scientific community

    Elango, B. and Ho, Y.S. ;2017, A bibliometric analysis of highly cited papers from India in Science Citation Index Expanded. Current Science, 112 ;8, 1653-1658.[[abstract]]The aim of the present study is to analyse the highly cited papers from India. The Science Citation Index Expanded database was used to retrieve the related bibliographic records. Grouping and reclassification of institutions with misspellings and variants have been done. The most productive institutions, collaborating partners and Y-index of the contributing authors were examined. Results revealed that all the highly cited papers from India did not receive citations in the early years after publication. Co-authored (or international collaboration) papers received more citation impact than single-authored ones. USA was the preferred collaborative partner for international collaboration. The Indian Institutes of Technology, CSIR organizations, and Indian Institute of Science, Bengaluru were the leading Indian institution

    This short communication discusses the duplication issue in Scopus's new interface. After searching for bibliographic records, the author noticed many duplicates in the downloadable file. This issue lasted a month, with 67% of records duplicated. After alerting Scopus, the new version was confirmed to have a duplication issue, prompting a recommendation to revert back to the old version. The study advises caution when utilizing Scopus data, particularly when exporting large files. Additionally, it highlights the novel attributes of the Scopus interface, including the ability to download 20,000 records at a time, a notable increase from the previous limit of 2,000

    Letter to the editor of Heliyon re: Mapping sustainability reporting research with the UN's sustainable development goal. Heliyon 9 (2023) e18510

    No full text
    This letter to the editor discusses an investigation on sustainability reporting research in line with the UN's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). There was an error found in the Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) calculation in the original research, which was rectified by applying the correct formula. Despite this error, the study's outcomes remained unaffected. It concludes by emphasizing the importance of a systematic approach in academic writing to learn from errors and avoid similar mistakes in the future

    Comment on ‘Research contribution of bibliometric studies related to sustainable development goals and sustainability’ [Discover Sustainability, 2023, 5, 1, 7, 10.1007/s43621-024-00182-w]

    Abstract This investigation discusses a comment on a recently published research study (Raman, Discov Sustain 5:7, 2024) related to Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and Sustainability, focusing on bibliometric analysis. The observation highlighted a computational error in the calculation of Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) as presented in the original publication. A revised formula was provided, along with corrected computations, revealing a notable disparity in growth forecasts. It emphasizes the need to use appropriate formulas for growth assessments and suggests that researchers should focus on identifying and rectifying inaccuracies
