It’s time for the “Best of 2017” lists to start appearing — so why not do one for retractions? We think it’s a good idea, so have partnered with The Scientist for the last few years to compile our most notable notices of the year.
From new records to mass resignations, you can check out our picks for 2017 here.

I appreciate the effort but wonder what were the basis of selecting these top 10. I feel 5 and 6 should have topped as they are author driven where they realized the mistake and came forward to retract the papers. This should be surely celebrated that the authors applauded.
Lets not make genuine retractions as something to shy away from.
