This is a Tampermonkey/Userscripts user script that automatically displays the Altmetric Badge (the colorful donut) on major academic publisher websites.
It is designed to help researchers quickly assess the social impact, news coverage, and policy citations of a paper without leaving the page.

- Broad Support: Works on ScienceDirect, Nature, Wiley, Springer, IEEE, Taylor & Francis, Oxford Academic, PNAS, AAAS/Science, and more.
- Smart Toggle: A floating button sits in the bottom-right corner. Click to load.
