Scholar Lens
A small evidence panel beside the publication list. It filters papers by authorship and format, connects annual citation bars to the papers behind them, and keeps every count tied to a dated Google Scholar snapshot.
How can citation context help someone navigate the papers without turning the page into a ranking dashboard?
Hover, focus, or filter one view and the corresponding paper, year share, and totals answer together.
The bibliography owns publication facts; the lens owns a volatile, dated citation overlay.
Origin
My friend Howard recommended the Google Scholar Author Highlighter. Its useful lesson was contextual emphasis: make one author’s contribution easier to follow without hiding the surrounding record. The site adapts that principle into its own publication filters and annual citation view.
