Exposed Fraud Cases

How many fraud cases has Fang Zhouzi and his New Thread exposed so far?

It may just be too many to list. According to the most recent report by New Scientist, Fang Zhouzi himself has estimated that they have exposed more than 700 cases, involving falsification, corruption, and pseudoscience. Sadly, very few of these cases received official attention in terms of formal investigation and resolution.

New Thread maintains a For The Record (立此存照) column, where discussions surrounding major cases are archived. About 100 more prominent cases are documented there (all in Chinese).

Resume Padding Cases:
Forgery:
Pseudoscience:
Plagiarism:
Other:
(This post will be frequently updated with English summaries of major cases as they become available.)
