[...] P(twitter) - # Scopus publications that have been mentioned in at least one (re)tweet (Source: Scopus & Plum Analytics)
Why look only for publications on Scopus tweeted ?? The ones that aren't in Scopus doesn't make them less open

Use multiple resources, not only Plum.

Exclude Scopus and Plum Analytics from sources as there is obvious conflict of interest.

How does this metric capture anything informative, besides that an article has been tweeted? How does it differentiate between 1 and 1000 retweets, and the additional discussion that this might have catalysed.

In complete agreement with Jon (and also Etienne, but that's a different matter). Twitter is antithetical to science writing/reading.

I agree with the comments above, and would also like to add that it has to be stated how twitter indicators point to open collaboration (the title of this section)? One finding is that publications tweeted are generally in categories where we don't count citations (news, editorials) and as such maybe could be used for an alternative attention indicator, but not necessarily a collaboration indicator (
