Q: how are citation results ordered? #166

Closed keller-mark closed 2 months ago

keller-mark commented 7 months ago

I am using the citations API to get a list of citations for a paper. This paper has over 10,000 citations but I understand that I can only access up to 10,000 results via the API. I am wondering if the results are ordered in a particular way that would make those first 10,000 citations biased (e.g., temporally biased toward older citations?). Thanks!

@keller-mark are you working with https://api.semanticscholar.org/graph/v1/paper/{paper_id}/citations or our bulk endpoints?
