Sorry if this has already been asked. Are you going to include the citation count from Google/Scholar? Compared to scopus and pubmed, Scholar indexes a bigger dataset, and is able to find more citations than the others.

Unfortunately Google Scholar data can't be harvested as per their terms of use. We're trying to only include metrics in Total-Impact that we are allowed to gather.

shit that sucks :(

(especially for those of us working in fields poorly covered by pubmed)
