There has been some concern about the impact of predatory publishers on scientific research for some time.
Recently, publishers that might previously have been considered `predatory' have established their bona fides, at least to the extent that they are included in citation impact scores such as the field-weighted citation impact (FWCI).
These are sometimes called `grey' publishers (MDPI, Frontiers, Hindawi).
In this paper, we show that the citation landscape for these grey publications is significantly different from the mainstream landscape and that affording publications in these venues the same status as publications in mainstream journals may significantly distort metrics such as the FWCI.
