Most cited living philosophers with Google Scholar pages working on free will & moral responsibility (CORRECTED)

Some philosophers who would have made the top ten in all likelihood do not have Google Scholar pages (e.g., Carl Ginet, Gary Watson, Susan Wolf). Once again, only those with a clear majority of their citations to work in this area are listed (Neil Levy [Macquarie] was a close case.) I list only the top ten, since the numbers drop off pretty quickly, which raises the likelihood that even more philosophers without Google Scholar pages would have been on the list after the top ten.
