Abstract
By following the recently published paper in Science titled "Coercive Citation in Academic Publishing", in this paper, we aim to discuss the demand of some journals that request authors to cite recently published papers in that journal to increase the impact factor of that journal. It will be mentioned that some of these demands are not ethical and consequently will diminish the reputation of the journal.
