User reviews
I suggest providing bibliometric indicators of the publication vehicle such as indexing criteria, impact factor, and open access for each paper (or categorize by these criteria).
Congratulations on implementing of this extension!

Very useful extension, thank you.
Please note that in the current version there seems to be a bug when you click "show more", as the years on the x-axis do not seem to adjust automatically to the new temporal scope.
I also found another issue. When using the extension after some time, scholar showed me the following message:
"Our systems have detected unusual traffic from your computer network. Please try your request again later.
Why did this happen?
This page appears when Google automatically detects requests coming from your computer network which appear to be in violation of the Terms of Service. The block will expire shortly after those requests stop.
This traffic may have been sent by malicious software, a browser plug-in, or a script that sends automated requests. If you share your network connection, ask your administrator for help — a different computer using the same IP address may be responsible. Learn more
Sometimes you may see this page if you are using advanced terms that robots are known to use, or sending requests very quickly."
