I have added couple of papers in google scholar recently. However those do not seem to get updated automatically in Scholarometer.

Link of the profiles are given below.

Please advise!

Regards,
Tanmoy

If the results are visible in Google Scholar, they should appear in
Scholarometer upon submitting a new query. Beware that results from a
previous query (using a link from a previous Scholarometer query, such
as the one you provided) are likely cached and not updated until you
submit a new query.

Hope this helps!

Thank you verymuch for the quick response. As I understood from it, the Scholarometer profile (and thus any widget embedded in personal website) does not get autometically updated with Google scholar. Every time I need to make a new query to update the figures. Is it like this?

Thank you again.
Tanmoy.

Right. Scholarometer is a crowdsourcing system. The data comes from
user queries. If nobody queries a particular author, there is no way
for the system to know that there is new data about that author. See
http://scholarometer.indiana.edu/about.html

Thank you.
