Not as good as described in this article

It seems that google scholar is not as good as described in this article. A perfect paper on the subject matter is written here You can check it out for yourself, what is written is really true. Would it thus be possible to include a milder version of my critic on this wikipedia page, like it exists in the German version of this article, without having it deleted? I thank you in advance. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 194.39.218.10 (talkcontribs) .

I found that your article was somewhat informative. However, it seemed to be highly biased against Google Scholar by blasting it at every opportunity. An example: "The "Googlemania" fueled by the enormous media publicity and laymen's ecstasy rubs off on Google Scholar and makes otherwise learned people disregard reality." —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 131.202.42.70 (talkcontribs) .

Search engine optimization for Google Scholar

Is the section Search engine optimization for Google Scholar really required or useful? I don't believe so, but I would like to consult other Wikipedians first. I can do stuff! (talk) 18:32, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The section appears to mix up two different topics: citation-ranking manipulation (mostly sourced here in a form that concerns individual authors, although publisher manipulation may also be a concern) and making content discoverable by journal publishers. Some properly sourced guidance on discoverability may be relevant here. I think citation manipulation is a broader topic than for Google Scholar specifically, and may be better placed elsewhere. In any case these two topics should be treated separately rather than as one thing. —David Eppstein (talk) 19:31, 10 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]
