The revisions let you track differences between multiple versions of a post.

Zhigang, on your recent post about "esthablished" imechanicians, I am very pleased you give some feedback to my Proposals for iMechanica --- you forgot to add the link to that quite lively discussion. http://imechanica.org/node/2996

Actually, a preliminary discussion could be to define esthablished (I am worried people may consider arbitrary your "definition" of "esthablished").

For me, you can do as you like, I really don't care, I am not obsessed by recognition, but look that even
somebody as weak as me could be in the list you propose!!,
and for
different criteria! Only Nix and Hutchinson really stand high in the
lists as "esthablished". Incidentally, congratulations: the most cited
paper of Hutchinson is that with you.

1) It may be useful to list the h index of all the imechanica users

2) it may be useful to create a database of the most cited papers of each imechanica users, this is very good for a quick orientation in this world full of papers that nobody has the time to read  

3) I start to think that together
for the creation of Imechanica, you are very likely the most esthablished mechanician
of the future, the heir of Hutchinson and Rice together, and more....

Attached the ranking I did quickly on Google Schoolar.
