| http://www.w3.org/ns/prov#value | - Error-proneness: The IF is calculated automatically using a huge database that is presumably the same as Thomson Reuters' Web of Science, which is available to subscribers. (To be more precise, Web of Science is not exactly a database, but a Web interface to several databases, such as the Science Citation Index.) Some 40 million cited references were analyzed for the 2008 JCR issue alone.
