    "abstract": "In this study the amount of informal citations (i.e. those mentioning only\nauthor names or their initials instead of the complete references) in\ncomparison to the formal (full reference based) citations is analyzed using\nsome pioneers of chemistry and physics as examples. The data reveal that the\nformal citations often measure only a small fraction of the overall impact of\nseminal publications. Furthermore, informal citations are mainly given instead\nof (and not in addition to) formal citations. As a major consequence, the\noverall impact of pioneering articles and researchers cannot be entirely\ndetermined by merely counting the full reference based citations.",
