Post Publication Policies

1. Post-Publication Discussion

Jurnal Harpodon Borneo welcomes scientific comments, questions, and feedback on published articles. Readers may submit comments or concerns to the editorial team through the journal's official contact channels. Submissions should be relevant to the published article, supported by appropriate evidence, and written in a professional manner.

The editor will evaluate the relevance and scientific merit of each submission. When appropriate, the original authors may be invited to respond. The editor will determine whether the comment and response are suitable for publication.

2. Corrections

The journal is committed to maintaining the accuracy of its published articles. If an error is identified after publication, the editorial team will assess its nature and impact on the article's content and conclusions.

Authors or readers may report errors to the editorial team with a clear explanation and supporting information. When a correction is necessary, the journal may publish a correction notice describing the error and the changes made. The notice will be linked to the original article to ensure transparency.

3. Retractions

Retraction may be considered when serious concerns undermine the reliability or integrity of a published article, including confirmed data fabrication, data falsification, substantial plagiarism, or serious violations of research ethics.

The editorial team will review the available evidence and, where necessary, seek clarification from the authors or relevant institutions. Authors will normally be given an opportunity to respond before a decision is made.

If retraction is warranted, the journal will publish a retraction notice explaining the reason for the decision and link it to the original article. The publication record will be maintained transparently so that readers are informed of the retraction.

4. Handling Post-Publication Concerns

All reports concerning published articles will be assessed fairly and objectively. The journal will distinguish allegations from findings supported by evidence and may request additional information or consult relevant experts when necessary.

Editorial decisions regarding comments, corrections, and retractions will be based on the available evidence, the reliability of the published work, and applicable publication ethics principles. The journal aims to handle these matters consistently and transparently while protecting the integrity of the scholarly record.

For submissions or inquiries concerning published articles, please contact the editorial team through the official contact information provided on the journal website.
