Weeding the publications list

[Digicanon]

How do I ensure that Scholarmeter takes my weeding of the publications list into account?  On a couple of occasions, after partially weeding the list, I lost the page and had to resubmit the search - when I did so, the papers I had weeded were still presented. What's the point of removing papers if the fact is not recorded?? From 1,000 publications I'm now down to 386 - but there is no save button to save the results???

That is a good question! Unfortunately, due to the non-open nature of
the data from Google Scholar, we do not store the publication data on
our server. We just provide the results of the analysis back to the
user. When you make corrections, eg by removing papers, we update the
analysis and provide you with the results, but we cannot store these
corrections because we cannot store the data.

You could try to make those corrections in your Google Scholar
profile, and then Google would store them. The next time that someone
queries Scholarometer using your Google Scholar ID, the analysis will
be based on the updated data in your Google Scholar profile.

I am sorry that at this time we cannot maintain a database of
publications. That was never the goal of the Scholarometer project,
which is instead focused on fields and impact of authors.
