Hi All, Can anybody tell what are the possibilities of adding a citation in the PhD thesis after the degree is awarded, if the authors come to know as the citation is missing.
Thank you
Great and honest question. Dear Syed, just put your thesis on RG, and add that citation as an author's comment. Do we not all make mistakes? Those who admit will have a great lesson learned. Congratulations on such learning.
Thank you! Mohammad and Miranda for your comments and appreciation. Indeed, the intention is to acknowledge one's work and respect the originality of the work.
Dear Dr. Vedashree,
Thank you for the suggestion. Unfortunately, could not understand well the point 2.
My best regards
Syed
No work is perfect. Even the PhD examining committee did not pick up your error. Sure, you do not want to be accused of plagiarism. PhD degrees can be retracted if intentional plagiarism is proven. You have come clean. So now insert and glue a Corrigendum Slip into the back cover of all printed copies of your PhD.
Insert a footnote at the end of all known electronic copies. Inform the examiners you have taken these steps. Thanks for being honest.
Hi Ian,
Thank you for your suggestion. Indeed a great and practical proposal.
With my best regards
Syed
