Rockstar Scholar
Description from store

If you visit your Google Scholar profile and have so many great papers that you can't tell which ones have new citations since your last visit, you're a Rockstar Scholar 🎸
Features:
(1) Track citation changes for up to 500 papers on a Google Scholar profile page.
(2) Data synced across browsers via your browser's data sync (if you're logged in).
(3) Selectively clear citation updates or let them accumulate over time.
(4) Auto-loads all papers on your home profile — no more clicking 'Show More'.
(5) Sort your entire publication list by citation trend — find your rising stars with one click.
(6) Runs on any Chromium browser.

To set up Rockstar Scholar on a Google Scholar profile page:
1- Install the browser extension.
2- Go to a Google Scholar profile and click the top banner to set it as your Rockstar Scholar homepage.
3- Wait for the citations to roll in.
4- Check back to your Rockstar Scholar homepage to see which papers increased or decreased.
5- Clear the reported citation count changes at the click of a button, or let them accumulate over time.
