Journal Policy

Crossmark and Publication Update Policy

This page documents how GMR maintains the current status of published content; Crossmark will be activated only after Crossref requirements are completed.

Current status

GMR maintains separate correction, update, expression-of-concern and retraction notices and links them to affected articles. The Crossmark button is not displayed until the journal has an active Crossref route, a DOI assigned to this policy page and registered Crossmark metadata.

Updates recorded

  • Correction
  • Update or Addendum
  • Expression of Concern
  • Retraction
  • Withdrawal or Publisher Notice where applicable

Version preservation

Editorially significant changes are not silently substituted. A separate notice explains the change and the original record remains identifiable. When Crossref services are active, each significant notice will receive its own DOI and update relation.
