Was just glancing at my google scholar profile and found my top-cited article is currently at 1111 citations. Thought I'd document the moment before it becomes less pleasingly mono-numerical.

Ha!

On Scholar, mine is at 11, so something's afoot.
I know it's a genus.

I suspect citing conventions/volume are very different across our fields, and also that your's is more book focused and thus unlikely to show up in google scholar?
I really don't care about the numbers there, but it's a handy way (in addition to Research Gate) to make my papers easier to find and  to find new relevant stuff that cites me.

I should say, that highest cited paper and the others in my top 5 are all either meta-analyses or review papers-- these get cited a ton because they are topics that lots of people need a handy reference for.

Oh yeah, they're definitely different.

Just thought it was a neat additional coincidence--like maybe Google is using citation rates to build a weird logic gate.

May your four ones last!

Ha! Missed the binary joke there.
Anyway I got a citation alert that brought it to 1113-- hopefully the 13 is not unlucky??

S'pose I should say something, since I spend so much time here and it's bound to slip out at some point: we're brooding over a little pachycephalosaurus egg, which should hatch early next spring. It will be the only such egg.

Aww...will it have the same funny little nose-flute thingy at birth, or will that grow later?

Congratulations! Hope your nest sitting goes well, with fine weather, no predators, and just enough help in preparing for the nestling.
