之前我打算對這件事的跟進到此為止, 不過既然知道最新情況, 還是報導一下.
葉兆輝已卸任社會科學院副院長及研究事務相關職務，涉事博士生亦須按大學既定紀律程序處理。
這篇文章已被期刊撤回, 通告原文:
The Editor-in-Chief has retracted this article after concerns were raised regarding the validity of certain references. Upon further investigation, the Publisher was unable to verify the source of at least 24 references. The authors admitted the use of AI tools without declaration. The editorial office acknowledged an oversight in verifying the authenticity of the references during the editorial process. The Editor-in-Chief therefore no longer has confidence in the reliability of this article. The authors agree with this retraction.

評論
這個做法和我之前的提議大致相同, 顯示我對學術界應該是有些影響力的. 這樣的處理固然是相當難看, 但總算比倉促的重新上載以致又再闖禍好得多. 俗語說"不聽好人言, 吃虧在眼前", 如果那些大學從業員在我痛斥學者水平愈來愈爛時, 肯改過自新認真工作, 根本就不會發生這件事. 現在事情已告一段落, 相關人員都上了沉重的一課. 所謂經一事，長一智, 日後他們有脫胎換骨的表現也不足為奇. 祝各相關人員身心健康, 日後都有好的發展.
