HomeIndexing Status
TRANSPARENCY · LIVE DASHBOARD

Live indexing status. Real applications. Honest rejections.

Every Datarsoft journal has a public indexing dashboard showing active databases, pending applications, and past decisions — including rejections. We disclose what other publishers hide.

When a researcher or institution asks where a Datarsoft journal is indexed, the answer is on the public dashboard. No salesperson can mislead. No author can be deceived. Truth is the only product we sell.

Public Indexing Dashboard

Every Datarsoft journal has a public indexing status page at/[journal-acronym]/indexing-status. The page shows three columns:

Column 1 — Active Indexing

Databases where the journal is currently indexed. Each entry shows:

  • Database name and logo.
  • Date of first indexing.
  • Verification link (clicks through to the actual database listing).
  • Coverage type (full text, abstract only, citation only).

Column 2 — Under Application

Databases where the journal has applied but evaluation is pending. Each entry shows:

  • Database name.
  • Application submission date.
  • Application reference number (where available).
  • Expected decision window.
  • Current status (received / under-review / requested-revision / on-hold).

Column 3 — Past Decisions

Includes both successful and unsuccessful applications. We disclose rejections too. Each entry shows:

  • Database name.
  • Application date.
  • Decision date.
  • Outcome (approved / rejected / withdrawn).
  • Reason (if rejected and we are permitted to disclose).
  • Plan for re-application (if applicable).

Why We Disclose Rejections

Most publishers hide rejections from indexing services. We disclose them because:

  1. It is the truth, and we are committed to truth.
  2. It demonstrates the difficulty of indexing — which is real, and authors should understand.
  3. It shows the gap between aspiration and current state — and our plan to close that gap.
  4. It prevents the trap of falsely claiming indexes a journal does not have.

Target Index Roadmap

Each journal explicitly lists target indexes it does not yet have but is working toward:

DOAJYear 2 application
ScopusYear 2-3 application (assessment takes 1-2 years)
Web of Science (ESCI)Year 2-3 application
PubMed CentralYear 3+ (for health-medical journals)
IEEE XploreYear 3+ (for engineering-CS journals)
Scimago JCR Impact FactorYear 4+ (requires Scopus/WoS first)
