- They have clear evidence that their findings are unreliable, either by mistake (e.g. falsification of data) or honest error (e.g. miscalculation or experimental error).
- The findings have previously been published elsewhere without appropriate cross-reference, permission or justification (for example, if there is a case of over-publication).
