Info on history[edit]

Note that what was nominated for deletion in 2017 was a misleading redirect to University of Cambridge. PamD 11:08, 26 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion[edit]

Two different editors of this article have raised discussion on my talk page. I've had enough of this article and don't intend to involve myself any more. I have suggested that this talk page is the appropriate venue for any further discussion. PamD 17:50, 17 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

... or, if things cannot be resolved here, that Wikipedia:Neutral point of view/Noticeboard might be appropriate. PamD 14:36, 18 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Recent edits[edit]

Does being a contributor to a book published by CSP count as a WP:COI, I wonder? I note that the editor who has recently done a major edit verging onto peacockery is a contributor to [1] a recent book published by them. PamD 10:35, 31 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

If you hadn't started cleaning it up, I'd be inclined to just undo. In addition to the promotional language, there are no independent reliable sources added (it's all the official website and Quora). — Rhododendrites ^talk \\ 15:22, 31 December 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Citogenesis[edit]

Some books from Cambridge Scholars Publishing are basically just recycled from Wikipedia. See this noticeboard discussion for details. XOR'easter (talk) 23:19, 30 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Revision needed[edit]

The following phrase is found in the article: “Although it was not included on the original Beall's List of predatory publishers, it was included on an updated list[when?].” I could not find an updated list at all, therefore this sentence is misleading and should be corrected, which I have done in the article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.16.217.20 (talk) 14:52, 24 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

In 2021, Cambridge Scholars Publishing was included in the updated Beall's list (open https://beallslist.net/ and scroll down to see the publishers added in 2021.) Palisandria (talk) 05:06, 19 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

This source is spurious. This is not Beall's list. It was published anonymously without giving any justification for the update. This is tantamount to defamation and should be immediately removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.103.192.38 (talk) 13:45, 1 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
