Icon request: icon-mendeley, icon-google-scholar

[quxiaofeng]

These icons should be added.

[cboettig]

A Mendeley icon would be great. :+1:, e.g. based off of their favicon? Currently I use this:

I can see about getting an SVG version from them.

+1 weibo

[kepbod]

+1 weibo As we know, weibo is chinese twitter. So I think it's very necessary to add it. Here is the official icon.

[davegandy]

icon-weibo now exists: http://fontawesome.io/icon/weibo/

[cboettig]

Thanks, but I don't see how this request for scholarly literature icons Google scholar or Mendeley became a request for weibo....

[jjlharrison]

The request originally included weibo. @davegandy removed weibo from the title as it has been added.

[cboettig]

cool, thanks for explaining.

To continue the discussion, an icon for Google Scholar and Mendeley would be great. Carl's suggestion for Mendeley is a good one. GS's favicon would be a good way to go, I think.

For posterity, the current favicon looks like this:

Mendeley's icon would be a nice addition, It's becoming more common in academia to link to mendeley profile.

I second the Google Scholar and Mendelet request, and I take this opportunity to request more acadèmic icons: ResearchGate, ResearcherId, Academia.edu. I enclose some icons.

As Google Scholar was requested >12 months ago, and RG 4 months ago - is there any feedback?

The title of the post hasn't been updated to reflect the additional icon requests... do we need to create new posts?

For anyone needing an interim fix for these icons, I've uploaded a font here:

https://github.com/dtnedry/academicons

It contains: google-scholar, researchgate, and mendeley, along with the -square varieties sharing the same metrics as those in Font Awesome. It blends well with Font Awesome 4.3 as far as I can tell from my testing.

[jponttuset]

Big thanks @dtnedry for these awesome academicons. Already using "google-scholar-square" in my site: http://jponttuset.github.io. The only possible improvement to perfection ;) I see to it is to make the Google scholar icon in the square a little bigger... not very readable when at small size. In any case, big kudos!

[jpswalsh]

@jponttuset You're welcome. The inset icons could be made larger, but they are rather limited by the pixel grid implemented by Font Awesome, and by the inherent shape and complexity of the logo itself. Making the inset icon larger would make it go off the grid, so to speak, and it wouldn't look consistent alongside the other square icons (even though the dimensions of the overall square would be identical). I agree that the icons can look a bit messy at very small sizes, but I don't think the square icons were intended for use below fa-2x, at least on @1x displays.

For others who might be scanning this thread, I've now added the following icons, as requested by @cboettig :

orcid orcid-square impactstory impactstory-square

[darcyabjones]

+1 Would love to see mendeley, google scholar, and ResearchGate. Thankyou!

[dunovank]

Here's one I made for scholar:

[bretthman]

+1 for research gate, google scholar, academia

[jpswalsh]

All of the icons requested in this thread (and more besides) are featured in Academicons:

https://jpswalsh.github.io/academicons/

It was built as a supplement to Font Awesome, so it has identical metrics, as well as having both the icon and icon-square varieties for all icons.

Since this thread seems to be largely neglected, feel free to open up an issue here with your icon request, and I'll try to add it.
