浙江大學稱微信閱讀量10萬+等同學術期刊

Online articles accepted by more than 10 mainstream media outlets or have garnered more than 100,000 hits on WeChat platforms will qualify for academic credentials with the same status, said a proposal issued by Zhejiang University.

浙江大學日前發布的一則提議稱，凡是被超過10家主流媒體接受、或在微信平臺上閱讀量為10萬+的網文，將等同于學術成就。

The university aims to recognize online pieces of cultural excellence by its faculty members and students, according to the draft statement.

根據該草擬聲明，浙大此舉是為了通過其教職員工和學生，認可網絡文化的優秀作品。

The top school also launched into a detailed explanation of the proposal via its official WeChat account. It said that varying forms of great works are welcomed, including original articles, audiovisual and animated products.

這所高級學府還通過其官方微信賬號詳細解釋了這一提議。表示歡迎各種形式的優秀作品，包括原創文章、影音和動漫等。

Those works should be published or printed in China's mainstream media, such as People's Daily, Guangming Daily and Qiushi Journal.

這些作品應該被刊發在中國的主流媒體上，例如《人民日報》、《光明日報》和《求是期刊》。

Other web portals like Sina, Tencent and Youku are covered in the approved list.

像新浪、騰訊和優酷其它門戶網站也在被認可的名單之列。

The university's move is an inclusive, innovative and modern one, as new media has bloomed and China has encouraged academic reform, said Zhu Wei, deputy director of the Research Center on Communication Laws at the China University of Political Science and Law.

中國政法大學傳播法研究中心副主任朱巍表示，浙大的這一舉措是兼容、創新和現代的，因為新媒體已實現了蓬勃發展，而中國也鼓勵學術改革。

But some thought the proposal might allow credential cheating in higher education.

但是一些人則認為，這一提議可能造成高等教育的認證造假。
