掠夺性期刊是学术出版界众所周知的问题，它们是虚假研究的储存库。近年来，掠夺性期刊的数量不断增加，有必要针对这一挑战提出解决方案。在本文中，我们将讨论掠夺性期刊的可能排名。我们的排名方法基于 Beall 检测掠夺性期刊的标准，它可以帮助编辑改进其期刊或将有问题的期刊转换为非掠夺性期刊。此外，我们的方法可以帮助年轻编辑保护他们的期刊免受掠夺性行为。最后，我们提出一个案例研究来阐明我们的方法。
Predatory journals are a well-known issue for scholarly publishing and they are repositories for bogus research. In recent years, the number of predatory journals has risen and it is necessary to present a solution for this challenge. In this paper, we will discuss about a possible ranking of predatory journals. Our ranking approach is based on Beall’s criteria for detection of predatory journals and it can help editors to improve their journals or convert their questionable journals to non-predatory ones. Moreover, our approach could help young editors to protect their journals against predatory practice. Finally, we present a case study to clarify our approach.
