It is mainly due to the fail with unit tests. I have to rewrite them. But since Yahoo API is no longer available (I didn't know), I will do it soon

This does not work if google refuses to serve content of https://scholar.google.com/citations to the proxy.php, as in my case. The proxy script works for other websites, but google seems to notice that I'm trying to mirror their page and refuses to provide the content
