No, I'm talking about the ones where the citation itself is almost or even completely irrelevant and used as a way to inflate the citation count of the authors. You could find those by checking whether or not the value as a reference (ie: contributes to the understanding of the paper you are reading) is exceeded by the value of the linkage itself.
