Top 100 2021 - the Old School Remix

Data set 1 for a three part blog series, by Mike Taylor, exploring different ways we can calculate the top 100. The methodology for this approach (which I’ve informally called the ‘Old School Remix’) only allows primary research articles - whether published in preprint archives or journals. In other words, we’re not looking at books, editorials, commentaries, reviews, and letters. We also chose to discount articles that have been retracted.
