^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Features
~~~~~~~~

– add GGS score
– add links to ScimagoJR and Google Scholar

This is a browser extension that adds GGS rankings to WikiCFP pages. It
should work for all major browsers, but only Firefox and Chromium are
tested and maintained. However, only the Firefox web store will
distribute the addon for now. If anyone having a google web store
account would like to distribute this extension, it’s welcome. You can
still load this extension via developer option in chrome.

The extension adds one column with the conference rankings, one column
with links to Goggle Scholar and ScimagoJR queries for each cfp and a
drop-line over predatory call for papers.

Ranking used is GGS. It is assigned to computer science conferences by a
spanish-italian academic consortium and is based on rankings from 3
different sources.Rankings are between 7 (best) and 0 (worst). Note that
0 is also used for conferences that are not top and have too few data
for a fair rating. More details are available on the `GGS website`_.

This tool also helps avoiding predatory conferences by using the list of
publisher and journal websites available at https://beallslist.net .

“n/a“
~~~~~~~

If the “GSS“ column is “n/a“, it means that: 1. the cfp is for a
journal 2. the conference is very bad 3. the conference was not matched
by our algorithm 4. the conference is new

“err“
~~~~~~~

If the “GSS“ column is “err“, it means that: 1. the GGS score was
malformed (no known cases) 2. the algorithm has found more than one
match for this conference

In any of the above cases, I strongly suggest you to 1. check scholar,
sjr and GGS rankings via the provided links (you can click the “GGS“
table header to go the GGS website) 2. if you do not find the
conference/journal on these databases, only publish if you really trust
the organizers. 3. avoid conferences marked as predatory (drop-line).
