Create temporary bibliography
In cases where authors hand in a formatted version of the bibliography (rather than a reference database), this tool can help creating a database in BibTeX format.
Required argument is a textfile with a formatted bibliography (one
entry per line). The option k
is there to supply an entry with a
keyword, for example the name of the chapter author.
We require authors to use shortcuts in their docx manuscript when
citing, including the use of a citekey (LASTNAME_YEAR
), there should
already be citekeys in the manuscript. When running fix_tei.py
,
these citekeys are gathered together and can be used as an input to
this tool.
The tool creates temporary citekeys out of the formatted bibliography and in an interactive session, the user selects the most likely entry. With this, rudimentary entries can be created.
