The first paper I wrote in grad school (12 years ago) just crossed 20,000 citations. To mark this satisfying but ultimately irrelevant milestone, I thought I’d share some thoughts on how to try to increase probability of more citations, especially since grad students follow me. These are in no particular order.

Spend a great deal of time and effort writing and organizing the paper well. This paper went through hundreds of revisions, a number of them large.
