((Nature: Chinese journal finds 31% of submissions plagiarized)
自2008年10月以来，我们已经发现提交给《浙江大学学报科学版》（英文版）的投稿中，非原创的论文竟然高达31%，比例之高令人错愕（2233份投稿中692份为非原创论文）。《浙江大学学报科学版》（英文版）被中国国家自然科学基金委员会指定为核心学术期刊，是中国首家申请成为“交叉索引”（CrossRef）的“交叉核对”（Crosscheck）剽窃审查服务会员的学术期刊。
译注：Crosscheck是由国际出版链接协会（PILA）牵头，与几家全球出版集团共同参与的一个世界范围内防止学术剽窃的功能性国际项目。
因此我们正在帮助论文作者、研究人员以及杂志编辑小心提防剽窃，而且还要对抗文化上的误解。比如，在古代中国，学生通常被鼓励复述自己导师的言论。
为了这个目的，我们已经组织了一些讲座，并在中国媒体上发表了三篇具有广泛影响的文章，同时在“交叉索引”的在线新闻季刊上进行了报道。我们的网站也显示了“交叉核对”的标志，以提醒论文作者要对自己的论文负责。

中国其他学术期刊也在使用2008年发布的软件整顿学术剽窃，这款软件由中国学术期刊电子出版社与北京清华同方知识网络技术共同开发。

Chinese journal finds 31% of submissions plagiarized

Since October 2008, we have detected unoriginal material in a staggering 31% of papers submitted to the Journal of Zhejiang University?Science (692 of 2,233 submissions). The publication, designated as a key academic journal by the National Natural Science Foundation of China, was the first in China to sign up for CrossRef's plagiarism-screening service CrossCheck (Nature 466, 167; 2010).
We are therefore campaigning for authors, researchers and editors to be on the alert for plagiarism and to work against cultural misunderstandings. In ancient China, for example, students were typically encouraged to copy the words of their masters.
To this end, we have given lectures and written three papers (including Y. H. Zhang Learn. Publ. 23, 9?14; 2010) that have been widely publicized in China's media (see http://go.nature.com/dPey7X; in Chinese) and reported in CrossRef's quarterly online news magazine (see http://go.nature.com/icUwvh). Our website displays the CrossCheck logo to remind authors of their responsibilities.
Other Chinese journals are also policing plagiarism, using software launched in 2008 by China's Academic Journals Electronic Publishing House and Tongfang Knowledge Network Technology in Beijing.
