For reasons I can't fathom, Internet Archive Scholar got attention today, a mass of it, painting it as a "new" service. Actually, it has been out there for about a year. BUT....

If beautifully structured access to academic citations by the millions is your bag or desperately needed tool, especially ones that are ONLY left in the Wayback Machine, you are in LUCK. And this will be your favorite day. Try it.

@textfiles The Internet Archive Scholar is the best alternative to Google Scholar I have ever seen. Wow! Can I create an account and curate my publications?

@MarcusStensmyr @textfiles By the way @giorgiogilestro it looks like we are now co-authors! The author parsing software could use the assistance of manual curation, @textfiles (Giorgio F. Gilestro was the editor, not an author).

@albertcardona @MarcusStensmyr @textfiles @giorgiogilestro whoops! we have the "editor" metadata in the catalog: https://fatcat.wiki/release/fyescyq5lncvxmzlrnspa3umce/contribs

but doesn't come through in search results. how would you expect this to display in search results? "(Ed.)" after the editor name? PubMed seems not to display; PLOS (publisher) shows in separate metadata box

@scholar @albertcardona @MarcusStensmyr @textfiles you don't need to show the editor's name at all. It's not important ( certainly not in this context )
