citation_network_plot generates plots of citation networks, depicting works as dots ("nodes", in network parlance) and citations as arrows ("edges") from cited works to citing works.

citation_network_plot(
  citations,
  cited_only,
  stages,
  root_source,
  label_only_cited = FALSE,
  color_plot = TRUE,
  custom_plot = FALSE,
  arrow_gap = 0.015,
  time_axis = "x",
  seed = 324
)

`citations`	A dataframe representing classified citations such as that generated by `classify_citations`.
`cited_only`	A dataframe representing the works that are only cited by—not citing—the other works in `citations`. This need only be specified if multiple classifications are employed (e.g., "agree" and "disagree") and not all of the only-cited works fall into the first classification. Otherwise, this information will be automatically generated from `citations`.
`color_plot`	Should multiple classifications be denoted by different colors? If not, they will indicated by different shapes.
`custom_plot`	Should the function return a bare plot suitable for customization using `ggnetwork` functions?
`arrow_gap`	A parameter that will shorten the arrows that link works in order to avoid overplotting the dots that represent the works; larger values may be desirable if `custom_plot` is set to TRUE and the size of the dots will be increased using `ggnetwork`'s `geom_nodes` function.
`time_axis`	Set to "y" to specify that time should start from the bottom of the plot or "x", the default, to specify that time flows from left to right.
