This is a list of predatory standalone journals; these sites charge publication fees to authors without checking articles for quality and legitimacy. This list is derived from en:Beall's list - Standalone Journals (online).

Editors are welcomed to update this list accompanied by facts and reasoning in the edit summary.

Technical details: The reliability categories are applied in the following order: blacklisted > deprecated > generally unreliable > marginally reliable > multi (varied reliability) > generally reliable. When date range rules are present, they always take precedence. Therefore, we encourage rules to be as specific as ever, and always include date ranges if they are part of the source evaluation.
