[seqfan] Re: So-called "junk" journals

[Frank Adams-watters]

I think this can be summed up quite simply: we want references to good articles, not to good journals. There is a presumption that articles in reputable peer-reviewed journals are good, but we will cite good articles wherever we find them.

The reasons why someone might publish in lower quality journals are really not relevant.
