 > We should also display the total number of citing papers, rather than
 the number of cites, as these are, in fact, different things as you point
 out, but people may not quite get that at first.

 re: number of citing papers, I think this clutters the UI, though I'm not
 sure how to fix it.  It also gives some ambiguity to the following
 stats...

  Citation summary results       All papers      Published only
  Total number of citable papers analyzed:       9       2
  Total number of citations:     9       4
  Number of citing papers:       9       4
  Average citations per paper:   1.0     2.0
  Median citations per paper:    0       2
  Mode of citations per paper:   0       1
  Breakdown of papers by citations: ...

 I'm not sure how to reorder these stats so that it's not confusing.
 Umm... Maybe we need different verbiage on Average citations per paper?
 With number of citing papers right before it, it indicates to me (perhaps
 because I'm not as academically involved as our average user, maybe) that
 that is the average number of citations each citing paper gives, and
 mathematically that is sound for the "All papers" column, but not for the
 "Published only" column.  Suggestions?
