Reviewing publications' section

@Femkemilene: Thank you for cleaning up another article on an academic - Somdip Dey. Since, I have used similar format to also write this article, especially the Publications' section, will it be possible to review the section to maintain a neutral voice (and remove any promotional content)? I am a moderately new editor and thank you for helping me clean up the articles.IMLone wolf (talk) 17:01, 20 May 2022 (UTC)

You're welcome. Writing neutrally about things you feel positive about is difficult (and I would recommend new users start by improving articles about topics they do not feel passionate about).

The article also uses Google Scholar results wrong. You typically want to stay away from auto-generated statistics, and instead rely on WP:secondary sources. There are a few reasons you can't use GS like that:

• It only indexes academics with a Google Scholar account
• It only looks at specific keywords, whereas the field may have synonyms. (For instance, I'm the only one who uses the term variable renewables as an expertise , but I'm not a top-cited expert on this topic by far)
• Most academics publish among multiple disciplines (going back to the above example, I've not yet published my first paper on variable renewables, so those 150 cites are completely irrelevant here. Femke (talk) 07:42, 21 May 2022 (UTC)
