Save the web page (Explorer is alright for it renames the images and puts .gif, .jpg, or whatever extension. Firefox and Chrome weren't as successful and would sometimes save into an HTML kindlegen wasn't able to convert properly).

Also make sure you save the complete HTML (not "only" HTML, nor Web Archive .mht).

Just drag the html over the kindlegen.exe (or use it at command line) and you get the .mobi document for your Kindle.

Works flawlessly for me.

Good luck.
In the case of this specific html formatting provided by Google Scholar, kindlegen doesn't do the job, but Calibre does!

So instead of converting to .mobi with kindlegen, use Calibre. I tried, and it looks pretty ok to me.

Cheers.
