#JabRef got a new cool new feature, to quickly see where bibliographic information is still incomplete. You might think, JabRef has already an Integrity check? Well, this feature's key focus is primarily on identifying missing required fields and to providing a quick overview.

JabRef’s Blog · JabRef’s new Window for Bibliography Consistency CheckHi, I’m Priyanshu, an engineering student in Computer Science. In this blog post, I’m glad to introduce you to a new feature that I worked on - a window for checking bibliography consistency in JabRef.

If anyone from the University of Hull follows me, did you know I maintain a set of latex templates that support the Hull Harvard referencing system? I don't remember who I inherited it from, but it's pretty cool and I've taken up the torch of maintaining it myself.

Yesterday, I updated it to the new Hull Harvard style (which required manually editing the hull.bst file, which was an adventure in and of itself if anyone would be interested in reading a blog post about it?). Please see recent commit message for further information if you're migrating:

JabRef’s Blog · 🎄 JabRef 6.0-Alpha Release 🎄We are excited to publish the first Alpha version of the upcoming Version 6.0. JabRef 6.0 Alpha already brings many new features, improvements and fixes.

I have a quick question to all #bibtex users out there, particularly academics: Do you know of an open source software solution to share bibtex items (#bibliographies) within a #research group?

I am thinking of a #server application, for example, to which individual researchers can upload their bibliographies, tag/cluster/organise and share them with each other. Ideally with some browser plugin to make adding new references easy.

A boost would be highly appreciated - thanks!

Updating a 6-year old paper using #Emacs org-mode (with latex & bibtex in the background). The handling of citations has completely changed, and the docs for the new org-cite commands is absolutely cryptic. Therefore a delight to discover this paper which (a) makes everything clear, and (b) shows the power of the new system:
