__TOC__
== Summary ==
General repositories like [[Academia.edu]], [[HAL Open Archives]], [[ResearchGate]], [[Semantic Scholar]], and [[Zenodo]] host academic papers, conference proceedings, book chapters, preprints, technical reports, etc. No filters exist for quality, and several will host unreviewed [[preprint]]s, [[retracted paper]]s not marked as such, unreviewed [[manuscript (publishing)|manuscripts]], and even papers from [[predatory journals]]. Determine the original source of what is being cited to establish reliability. When possible, cite the original source in preference to the repository.
