Altmetric Explorer

Hi! The Altmetric Explorer is under active development and we’re being guided to a great extent by feedback by testers like you – thanks in advance for your comments, bug reports and suggestions!

I suggest you ...

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".
(thinking…)

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

If a similar idea already exists, you can vote and comment on it.

If it doesn't exist, you can post your idea so others can vote on it.

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

  1. make an Android app for altmetric

    It would be great to see altmetric scores from android phones and tablets!

          • flag items for combination / dedupication

            I would like to be able to mark papers / articles as being duplicates when I can see two things are the same so their Altmetrics would be combined. The feature I imagine is a way to flag two things with different citation_id for combination. A live example in Altmetric is:

            http://www.altmetric.com/details.php?citation_id=2406474
            http://www.altmetric.com/details.php?citation_id=2405703

            This shows the same article uploaded to Figshare presented with a different citation_id.

            • Add ResearchGate as network source ....

              since ResearchGate also evaluates attention to publications by views and downloads. Eventually you can add download numbers from there to weight it.

              • Add Zotero as an online library

                it should work similarly to Mendeley that you can count the occurrences of the article in the accounts.

                        • Let us edit, rename, overwrite reports

                          Reports are currently 'set in stone'. Save one and you can't edit it, nor can you rename it or overwrite it with a newer version. For serious users, this quickly results in a messy Reports Dashboard. More flexibility required.

                          • Track De Gruyter Journals

                            I have just published in a new open access journal, Anvil, http://www.degruyter.com/view/j/anv.2013.29.issue-1/anv-2013-0002/anv-2013-0002.xml?format=INT I tried your Altmetric it! button but it did not work. Having just done a major Twitter, FB campaign it would be nice to see the effect! In fact none of the 100s of De Gruyter journals work, Or am I missing something??

                                  • Provide scores in context for more articles.

                                    Currently some articles have information that provides some context to that articles score e.g. "Puts article in the top 5% of all articles ranked by attention this year".

                                    It would be great to see this information for articles that don't perform as well, if also a little depressing.

                                      it would be useful to be able to sort out the articles by score and journal. Thanks.

                                        I love this format!

                                        It would be great if you could directly import a citation to a reference manager.
