Thank you Engr Hossain for your recommendation, I uploaded about 20 articles that cited my work as supplementary material, but what I observed is that Researchgate presented it as if am the real author of those materials. To prevent any form of plagiarism I had to delete them almost immediately. But if you can outline the steps you took towards uploading the supplementary materials without committing any crime kindly let me know. Thank you for your effort
Thank you Engr. Hossain, I have followed your recommendation to the last letter and uploaded 10 supplementary materials with the citations and earnestly waiting for the result before I will upload others. I cannot appreciate you enough
Three steps to add the missing self-citation into your ResearchGate (RG)
When you have a missing self-citation problem because there are no references with your publication or there is a less number of references in that publication (e.g., your references list in your article is 40 but appear 20 in RG, you need to do the following steps to solve this problem:
1) Go to your article that you want to add the references to it and remove the full-text from publication page (if you do not upload the article, skip this point)
2) Download the article (publisher’s version/PDF) from the publisher’s website.
3) Go to Add new researchàPublished research and upload your article (publisher’s version) as private file* (if your article is not open access) and as a public file (if your article is open access), you can check the copyright for any journal using this link

When you done these steps, refresh the page or log out/in to see the changes (you will see that the number of references increases directly and your self-citation will appear in next 24-hour update).
You need to repeat these steps for each article separately.
