We've come to rely on Google too much, so much that if you are not on Google you don't exist. That's a problem with researchers that are looking for articles to cite.
- xorand 8y agoIs this recent? In my case I noticed it yesterday.
- eruci 8y agoI also just noticed it. No idea when the rest of the papers were dropped.
- xorand 8y agoI sent today a message to Google Scholar with this https://support.google.com/scholar/contact/general https://support.google.com/scholar/contact/general
- eruci 8y agoThe articles are still on Google Search though: https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Arepo.risat.org https://www.google.com/search?q=site%3Arepo.risat.org Fingers crossed they don't get dropped from the main index too.
- xorand 8y agoSomebody starts a site for collecting "scholar dropouts"? An article qualifies as a scholar dropout if: - it was previously available on Google Scholar - it cannot be retrieved, or the search on Google Scholar gives a misleading result (for example it gives another article, as explained in [1]) Please help to make a list of scholar dropouts! Thank you.
