Manipulating Google Scholar Citations and Google Scholar Metrics [pdf]
- spindritf 14y agoThe paper http://arxiv.org/abs/1212.0638 http://arxiv.org/abs/1212.0638 EDIT: Originally I submitted this write-up http://www.roughtype.com/?p=2841 http://www.roughtype.com/?p=2841 by Nicholas Carr. It must have been later changed (by the mods?) to a direct link to the arxiv paper.
- kanzure 14y agoSomeone else was manipulating Google Scholar search results by automatically generating papers from LaTeX on his site, then citing the other generated papers with fake bibliographies. Unfortunately, I can't remember any of the identifying details. Does anyone know who this was or a link to his spam?
