If you have access to your Publisher/Journal's partner dashboard you'll see the following Verification section:
Researchers can use their Web of Science profiles to keep a verified track record of all their research outputs like peer reviews, publications and editorial work. Researchers can indicate individual Handling Editor records manually (see info on how they do so here). In these cases we do not display these records on researcher profiles, but surface them as "unverified" on the relevant journal/publisher dashboard.
As a journal/publisher with access to your dashboard - you can view how many such requests we've had for your journal(s) that remain unverified and can manually check these against your records and verify/disavow the records manually if you wish to do so.
Let's look at an example:
When you navigate to your Handling Editor Verifictaion page on your dashboard, you will see a list of your journals. Click on one of the journals and you will see a page listing all unverified handling editor records we have for that journal.
They will be displayed in a table like the below:
^ You can see in this example there are 4 unverified handling editor records waiting for this journal.
Let's say you check your records (i.e. within your peer review tracking/submission system) for this journal and can verify the top record, you can then verify the record as follows:
Select "Verified" from the drop down -> this will the update the status and you'll see a pop-up confirming the record has been verified.
What to do if you can't verify a handling editor record?
Disavow
If you can't see one of these handling editor records in your own records, or the editor has not provided enough information you can "Disavow" the record - this will send the editor a notification that their record was not able to be verified.
