As more and more academic papers use Julia, I wonder if it would be a good idea to list them on the Julia-lang website, similar to the list of books that use Julia. It would bring a bit more recognition to authors within this community and help grow the idea that Julia is also useful for academic publishing.

You mean, one should create a list with 7000+ entries including those from [Google Scholar](https://scholar.google.de/scholar?cites=12373977815425691465&as_sdt=2005&sciodt=0,5&hl=de)?

Thank you for your response. You have just confirmed my suspicions. I was afraid that the list was too long to be effective.

Well I guess it’s a good thing that there’s lots of papers using Julia. Not a bad question.
Would be more powerful to list large influencing entities that use and/or contribute to Julia, which we already do 😊.

Good point, though not all of them are papers “using Julia” rather than “acknowledging Julia”. Some of these papers include:
- [Array programming with NumPy](https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-020-2649-2)
- [Pytorch: An imperative style, high-performance deep learning library](https://proceedings.neurips.cc/paper/2019/hash/bdbca288fee7f92f2bfa9f7012727740-Abstract.html)
Combined together, the large number of papers does mean that Julia is highly regarded as either a tool to use or a novel idea to build on.

If it is too difficult to distinguish all papers that use Julia from those that acknowledge it, I wonder if an alternative might be to promote new papers that use Julia in the monthly newsletter. If the newsletter had a section for this, authors could include their paper information in the newsletter.

What about if we build a vector database out of those papers so users can chat with it?
