Article Retraction & Withdrawal Policy

Article Retraction & Withdrawal Policy

Jurnal Permata Indonesia (JPI) is committed to maintaining the integrity of scholarly publications. Articles that have been published are considered part of the permanent scientific record, but under certain circumstances, they may be subject to retraction, withdrawal, removal, or replacement. These policies follow international standards of publication ethics.

1. Article Retraction

An article may be retracted if:

  • It contains plagiarism.
  • There is a false claim of authorship.
  • Data has been fabricated or manipulated.
  • It has been submitted or published elsewhere (multiple submission).

A written statement signed by the corresponding author with the consent of all authors is required before retraction. A retraction notice will be published and linked to the original article, clearly marked as “Retracted”, including the reason for retraction.

2. Article Withdrawal

Article withdrawal is only allowed for early versions of an article that have been accepted but not yet officially published, although they may already appear online. Withdrawal may occur due to:

  • Duplicate submission by mistake.
  • Major errors in the manuscript.
  • Ethical violations (plagiarism, false authorship claim, etc.).

The withdrawn article will be replaced with an official notice stating that the article has been withdrawn according to JPI policy.

3. Article Removal

In very rare cases, an article may be removed if:

  • It is defamatory or infringes on the legal rights of others.
  • It is the subject of a court order.
  • It contains false or dangerous data that could pose a health or safety risk.

The article’s content will be removed from the system, but metadata (title, authors) will remain, with a note explaining the removal.

4. Article Replacement

If an article contains serious errors that could pose a risk, the author may request replacement with a corrected version. The original article will be retracted and replaced with the revised version, linked clearly with a correction note.

This policy is established by the Editorial Board of Jurnal Permata Indonesia as part of our commitment to uphold publication ethics and scientific integrity.
