The University of Cologne's publication guidelines define the standard spelling of the university's name in the affiliation details of all publications produced. The guidelines also provide information on the correct naming of other affiliations such as faculties, institutes, third-party funded projects, and how to deal with double or multiple affiliations. The currently valid version is from June 2025.

There may be several reasons for this:

• Not all journals or publication types are indexed/recorded in Web of Science or Scopus
• See here for the indexed journals of WoS and here for Scopus
• Newly published publications are only added to the database after a few weeks
• Alternative spellings or title variations make searching more difficult
• Web of Science and Scopus mainly record English-language literature

If only one publication is available in Scopus, you cannot access your profile directly. Search for the co-author's profile, find the publication, click on your name, and then click on “View full profile.”
