Hi,
https://beallslist.weebly.com/ moved to an independend server: https://beallslist.net/

Spotting hijacked journals would be interesting too, but might need a different crawler because of the different page structure. I'm not familiar with how the crawling works, so I will not do it right now.
Here is the list of hijacked journals from beallslist.

Hi,
after crawling there are too many newlines in the .csv file so that reading the csv back in fails.
This is on windows, for now I have just removed them with Notepad++ manually, which is inconvenient.

Hi,
first off, thanks for the program, it's really helpful.
Sadly, the program does not work out of the box for me because Python has a problem with character encodings. Adding "encoding="utf8"" to the open calls in lines 94 and 133 fixes it for me.

Add source of predatory journal name to index (and report), to distinguish between real and hijacked journal properly.

Add CSV files in https://github.com/stop-predatory-journals/stop-predatory-journals.github.io/tree/master/_data as source directly

Hello,
It seems that the first 3 links in the readme point towards scam websites:

• https://predatoryjournals.com/journals/
• https://predatoryjournals.com/hijacked/
• https://predatoryjournals.com/publishers/

I hope it does not infer with the inner working of your app.
