By "independent" I mean sources that are neither (a) Knowledge mirrors; (b) web sites published by Mr. Yang; (c) books self-published by Mr. Yang; (d) journals edited by Mr. Yang; nor anything else related directly or indirectly to Mr. Yang and/or colleagues. Keep in mind that the references cited in these articles do
304:"Hoax"? That doesn't seem likely, for a hoax it's just too elaborate. The journal exists and is verifiable enough, and it's filled with lots and lots and lots of scholarly work. The only thing we don't know for certain is its quality. But it's not the kind of material somebody could just invent out of thin air to have a laugh at us, is it?

the same person. There is no indication that published articles have undergone any form of peer review. (So for purposes of
Knowledge, it's not a reliable source.) Its main function is as an outlet for Mr. Yang's theories. I'll assert that nothing notable has been published in this journal, which makes the journal itself non-notable. --
168:. I haven't checked up on the "computational verb theory" yet (that one does sound fishy to me), but the journal seems a serious scholarly outlet alright. Many of its articles seem to be invited articles, hence probably not peer-reviewed, but they come from bona fide researchers in bona fide academic disciplines.

It's definitely not a hoax: you can actually go to the website of the journal and download the articles published in it. However, it's not really a scientific journal, more of a scam: the editor-in-chief, the founder, the publisher, and the author who publishes the most papers in this journal are all

Regarding vanity and lack of notability: Even if the topic of "computational verb theory" is found to be verifiable, I'll also claim that it is not sufficiently notable to warrant several articles. The present state of affairs inflates the significance of Mr. Yang's theories beyond their apparent

with Yang's article. I say merge because it looks like the journal hasn't moved out from under Yang's shadow as it looks to be dedicated to his ideas and run by him. In these sort of circumstances, it is more interesting in context with Yang than by itself.

Are you not bothered a bit by the fact that the journal's editor-in-chief is also its publisher, or that most issues consist of a mixture of invited papers and articles by its editor and his friends? --
