Everything We Do Is Driven By Data
So We Need Reliable Author Identifiers

And There Can Be No Reliable Author

Researchers Are Reluctant to Register
“I do not find this a good idea for a number of reasons. First, there is no name ambiguity problem concerning (name) and (name).”
“I would prefer not to have a profile with my e-mail to be shared with commercial interests.”
“I really do not like such bureaucratic procedures. I must not and shall not be obliged to write about my academic work or my
biography. If you want an example or examples of my works, you can usually find them on the Internet.”
“F@&# off. Go home and f@&# yourself.”
Researchers Don’t Always Understand
ORCID
“I remembered that I have registered for an ORCID ID for another publisher a month ago with the ID number "0000-0002-
xxxx-xxxx". Now my question is: Must my ORCID ID for Hindawi be the same?”
“It is the same because we are twins, colleagues and brothers.”
There Are Still Technical Bugs
“I tried to register in ORCID but I am having problems in registering. After filling all the information and when I press register, it does not move further. It stays in the same page.”
“This crap shows:
Notice:{constraints.fieldmatch}
What the hell is this?”
“I suppose that you are working in India where I have felt that infrastructure of logistics and IT are very very
premature… Please contact me again when your site is ready for international accesses.”
April Fool’s...
“I have tried to log into the webpage you described, but it is all Greek to me, as I don't understand the language shown in the page
at all.”
“The link takes me to a website in German.... it looks very suspicious please advise.”
“I was redirected to the following websitehttps://orcid.org/oauth/signin
containing Polish texts etc. (e.g. Jom't lavi am eJ? Rigeztir)
I don't think this is serious anymore. Please remove me as an Associate Editor of your journal as soon as possible.”
