@aarontay Tangentially related question: among bibliographic databases/discovery layers with citation graphs, which one do you think will be first to add a feature labeling citations as faithful or unfaithful? Presumably they would need the full text of the citing paper and each cited paper for which they intend to... I'm not sure what the verb should be. To compute the level of fidelity? To estimate the level of fidelity? To classify the citation as faithful or not? To generate a label?

@aarontay Or, maybe vendors decide to delegate the assessment of whether the citation is faithful or not to the original authors. I can imagine one of the big publishers (or maybe Scite) setting up a platform for authors, authenticated by ORCID, to endorse or repudiate citation to their work.
