Deleting a DergiPark Article
Removing an article harvested from DergiPark from the catalogue and knowing what the harvest does with articles that are deleted, unpublished or gone from DergiPark.
To remove an article harvested from DergiPark (Türkiye's national journal platform) from the catalogue, you first unpublish it and then delete it. A deleted article is not taken in again or republished in later harvests.
Deleting the article
- On the Catalogue → Publications screen, open the article.
- On the Status card on the right, press Unpublish.
- Enter a reason of at least 5 characters and confirm.
- On the same card, press Delete.
- Enter the reason and confirm.
A published record cannot be deleted directly. Deleting a record that was published before also needs the publishing permission. A deleted article goes to the trash. You find it in the Publications list with the Show deleted filter and restore it with Undo delete.
Later harvests
- Deleted and retracted articles are skipped. The harvest does not overwrite these records and does not republish them.
- An article that was only unpublished stays a draft. If this article's information changes on DergiPark, the next harvest updates the record and republishes it if the record passes the publish checks. If you never want the article to appear on the site, delete it.
- An article you restore from the trash comes back as a draft. The harvest republishes it only if its information on DergiPark changes.
Articles removed from DergiPark
An article that is no longer on DergiPark is not deleted from the catalogue automatically. The harvest reports these records with the Gone from DergiPark count in the result line. If you want to remove such an article from the catalogue too, delete it with the steps above.
Deleting an issue
You can also delete an issue harvested from DergiPark as described in Deleting a Journal Issue. The delete window also states that the journal is harvested from DergiPark.
- With the Delete the articles too option, the articles go to the trash and are not taken in again in later harvests.
- With the Keep the articles in the catalogue option, the articles stay as drafts without an issue. For an article that is updated on DergiPark, the next harvest creates its issue again, and the article can be published again.
Manual changes
The harvest protects only deleted and retracted records. The catalogue information of an article that changed on DergiPark is rewritten with the information on DergiPark. The details are in Records Harvested from DergiPark.
