I think citation based discipline specific listing would make a good simple
start. For instance:
Atmospheric Science:
Article 1 citation [link1]
Article 2 citation [link2]
Bioinformatics:
Article 1 citation [link1]
Article 2 citation [link2]
etc...
Seeing mpl produced plots would be only 1 or 2 clicks away, plus this would
provide context to the use of plots rather that extracting figures and
putting them separately (dealing with copyright issues and such) on an
alternative gallery page. The figures you linked look shinny but not much
practical use in my field. Later, we can work on a more specific academic
gallery page, once citation gallery grows to a critical limit.
