I am using  to learn how to cite paper.

I don't know how to solve this question.

I've browsed the forums and found a number of posts that have addressed this issue, but none of the solutions seem to work for me. I have the following script that I just copied from the bibtex home page to get familiar with it. Instead of the citation number I get a question mark. I compile using Latex+Bibtex+Latex+Latex+PDFLatex+ViewPDF just as has been previously suggested and the problem persists.   \documentclass[11pt]{article} \usepackage{cite}  \begin{document}  \title{My Article} \author{Nobody Jr.} \date{Today} \maketitle  Blablabla said Nobody ~\cite{Nobody06}.  \bibliography{mybib} \bibliographystyle{plain} \end{document}   My bibliography (Bib.bbl)  @misc{ Nobody06, author = "Nobody Jr", title = "My Article", year = "2006" }    Looking at previous posts one thing that is concerning is that my .bbl looks empty as shown below. Further, I don't have a .blg  \begin{thebibliography}{}  \end{thebibliography}

When I try to cite a book in such a way  \begin{theorem}[\cite[p.~90]{bibitem}] Theorem body. \end{theorem}   I've got an error because of multiple use of [ and ]. Is it possible to cite in such a way in theorem argument? Would be great if it could be done without redefine of \cite command.

Hi I am trying to include references into my paper but it keeps showing the following when I compile. I am using texstudio. Message: I'm skipping whatever remains of this command The style file: plain.bst I found no database files---while reading file term paper.aux Warning--I didn't find a database entry for "Astrov"  My code is like this:   \documentclass[letter,scriptaddress,twocolumn, prl,showkeys]{revtex4}  \usepackage{amssymb, amsmath, amstext, amscd, verbatim, mathtools, graphicx, float, caption, subcaption} \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} \usepackage{natbib} \begin{document} This is my reference\cite[1]{Astrov}. \bibliography{term paper} \bibliographystyle{plain} \end{document}   They are all in the same directory. I am really panicing about this at the moment and apologize if similar questions have been asked before. Thanks in advance for your help!

Usually a name stays the same in whatever language. So, whenever I quote a work by Knuth -- be it in an English article or a German one -- I will quote him as Donald E. Knuth.  This is not always the case with ancient or medieval names. They are spelled differently in different languages. Two examples in English | German | French:   Aristotle | Aristoteles | Aristote Thomas Aquinas | Thomas von Aquin | Thomas d'Aquin   This means that when I write an English article, I need a bib-file that contains the English names, but when I want to write a German article, I need to go through my bib file and change the names accordingly. Depending on how often I in fact publish in English or German this could keep me busy and is prone to error.  So, I though, maybe I could have the different names already included in one single bib-file and let biblatex choose the correct name according to the primary language used in the document. Any ideas?  NB: I do not want to use in one single document both spellings Aristotle and Aristoteles (as the following MWE might make you think). Of course, if the article's primary language is English, then all the references to Aristotle will use the English spelling of his name. However, I want to be able to write articles in different languages, without (a) having to edit my bib-files each time or (b) generally maintaing not one single bib-file but two different ones, one for each language, or (c) having two distinct entries in one bib-file  MWE  % !TEX TS-program = lualatexmk \documentclass{scrartcl}  \usepackage{fontspec}         \setmainfont[Ligatures=TeX]{Times New Roman}  \usepackage[ngerman, british]{babel} \usepackage[babel]{csquotes} \usepackage[style=verbose,abbreviate=false,backend=biber]{biblatex}  \usepackage{filecontents}  \begin{filecontents}{\jobname.bib} @book{aristotle:ross:1924,     Author = {Aristotle},    % It is here, I think, that something could be done, e.g., ...

I (an undergrad) and 2 other profs from my department have been working on something and we were thinking of submitting our work to a conference (a pretty well known one) this week. The fact is there is no related work that has been done on the problem we are solving and therefore there is no paper which we can cite as a starting point for our work. The only existing things that we make use of are trivial definitions from mathematics (like Riemann Integral) and also definitions that are pretty well known in my area (CS). So again, we do not think there is a need to cite any particular papers for that.   Now my question as stated was - is it acceptable to have a paper with no references? Or do you think we should just mention some papers (we never had to use them) where those definitions were actually proposed?  PS: I'm sure some of you might suggest me to ask those profs. But quite frankly none of them have much experience as far as publishing papers is concerned. So it would be great if some one could give me a good advice and help me out.   Edit: Thanks everyone for the answers. Of course somewhere a little sarcastic and ridiculing, but I can understand since this is a little weird. Actually yes, I had the notion that a paper wasn't worth citing unless I use some results from it (say an algo or some theorem). But I guess that isn't the only reason why I should be referencing as many seem to suggest here. The fact is we had seen quite a few survey papers before we started this out and I was under the impression that there wasn't a need to cite them since anyone could find them. But now, things are bit more clear and I guess I should cite them and I will :)

I guess this question has been asked several times but still I did not find a solution :(  I used the template for physical review A, \bibliographystyle{spphys}, which the reference paper only has author name, journal title, volume, page e.g.     XXX, Phys. Rev. Lett. XX, XX (XXXX)   I need a template that could display the title of the quoted paper.  e.g.     XXX, title, Phys. Rev. Lett. XX, XX (XXXX)   Where can I find such a template? and/or bst file?

So for a report my teacher gave us exact prerequisite for the layout. He wants in text footnote citations in the author-year style and the bibliography in  the APA (5th) style. EDIT: The reference list should be numberd and sorted according to the appearence and I think corresponding to the footnote number.  Because I do not want to merge 5 .doc (MS Word) files from my group members and format everything in MS Word I need to get this to work in LaTeX.  Currently I am trying to get this to work with biblatex and Biber, but the combination of the two styles turns out to be very difficult to me. I am not set on biblatex. So, if it can be done with BibTeX or whatever, that is fine.

I'm trying to create an annotated bibliography. Here's my .tex document:  \documentclass[12pt]{article} \title{Annotated Bibliography}  \begin{document}  \nocite{*}  \bibliography{annotatedbib}  \end{document}   And here is the associated .bib document:  @Misc{hacker,     AUTHOR = `{Andrew Hacker'},     TITLE = {Is Algebra Necessary?},     HOWPUBLISHED = {New York Times},     MONTH = {July 31},     YEAR = {2012},     ANNOTE = {This article was published in the New York Times.}, }   No matter into which format I compile my .tex document, the annotation will not show up! Is there something that I'm missing?

I am building a bibliography using biblatex and biber (\usepackage[backend=biber,minnames=2,backref,firstinits,sortcites]{biblatex}) with a lot of cited papers. Therefore I often have the case of a journal name, volume, issue, month and year, all necessary.   Now the strange thing is, if I have a bibitem such as:  @article{item,   title = {Some Nice Scientific Title},   author = {Doe, Jane},   journal = {Important Journal},   volume = {50},   issue = {20},   pages = {1877--1879},   year = {1984},   month = {Jun},   publisher = {Important Society},   doi = {00.0000} }   the bibliography looks like this:    Can you spot it? The issue number 20 is in the brackets with the date. Now it looks like it is the day in the date.  So, how do I get around this?  Here's the full MWE:  \documentclass{scrartcl}  \usepackage[backend=biber,minnames=2,backref,firstinits,sortcites]{biblatex}  \usepackage{filecontents} \begin{filecontents}{item.bib}   @article{item,     title = {Some Nice Scientific Title},     author = {Doe, Jane},     journal = {Important Journal},     volume = {50},     issue = {20},     pages = {1877--1879},     year = {1984},     month = {Jun},     publisher = {Important Society},     doi = {00.0000}   } \end{filecontents}  \addbibresource{item.bib}  \begin{document}  \printbibliography[title = {References},heading=bibintoc] \nocite{*}  \end{document}

Current situation: I'm required to cite "normative" documents (read: standards and manuals) separately from articles and books etc. Using biblatex and biber with the numeric style I'm doing that by issuing multiple printbibliography commands like so:  \usepackage[style=numeric,backend=biber,bibencoding=utf8]{biblatex} %... lots of stuff \printbibliography[type=standard,title=Standards \&amp; Manuals] \vskip\baselineskip \printbibliography[type=manual,heading=none] \printbibliography[nottype=standard,nottype=manual]   which gives a heading Standards &amp; Manuals, prints a list of manuals, leaves a bit of space then the list of standards and finally, under a new heading Bibliography gives books and articles etc. Thus far everything is fine, enter:  The Problem: I'm using the shorthand field in my database for the standards and manuals which works perfect as far as output within the text is concerned and sets the shorthand as the label in the bibliography and prints the details to the right of it - problem is: my shorthands are considerably longer than the labels generated by the numeric style, but even though they're in three different \printbibliography commands, everything gets indented to the maximum width of the label, making the part for books and articles look quite ridiculous.  The following shows the problem with only two separate \printbibliography (and an obviously exaggeratedly long shorthand):   Now  what I would obviously want is for each of the \printbibliography commands to only use the indentation actually necessary to accommodate the largest label appearing within, i.e. rendering the Manuals section as above, but the Bibliography section like follows:   Can anyone help me to achieve this? Or give me some pointer where to look?  The above was produced with the following MWE on an up-to-date TeXLive 2014:  \documentclass[10pt,british]{scrbook}  \usepackage{babel} \usepackage[T1]{fontenc} \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc} \usepackage{lmodern}  \usepackage{filecontents} \begin{filecontents*}{\jobname.bib} @manual{HowTo,     title = {How to Make the World Go Round},     shorthand = {HowToMakeTheWorlGoRound},     publisher = {The Publisher},     year = {2000} }  @article{Article,     author = {Author, A. and Buthor, B.},     journal = {Journal Title},     pages = {113--126},     title = {The Article},     volume = {65},     year = {1900} } \end{filecontents*}  \usepackage[style=numeric,backend=biber,bibencoding=utf8]{biblatex} \addbibresource{\jobname.bib}  \usepackage[hidelinks]{hyperref}  \begin{document} \let\cleardoublepage\relax \chapter{The Document} Nothing to see here, but we refer to the \parencite{HowTo} based on a principle discovered by \textcite{Article}.  \printbibliography[type=manual,title=Manuals] \printbibliography[nottype=manual] \end{document}

I see in some examples each field in a BibTeX entry is given within "", while in others it is given within {}. For example,  @Book{Torre2008,  author    = "Joe Torre and Tom Verducci",  publisher = "Doubleday",  title     = "The Yankee Years",  year      =  2008,  isbn      = "0385527403" }  @PROCEEDINGS {conference:06,  editor    = {First Editor and Second Editor},  title     = {Proceedings of the Xth Conference on XYZ},  booktitle = {Proceedings of the Xth Conference on XYZ},  year      = {2006},  month     = oct, }   What are the differences between the two?

Is this due to a bug in the biblatex-chicago package?
