- Turn an uneven reference list into a named style
- Flag missing fields per entry instead of filling them in
- Use only the bibliographic data on hand and leave unclear points as questions
How it works
- Paste the reference list and name the style you want, for example a sample or the name of the style.
- Say whether you want only the list standardised, or also the short citations in a text if you paste one.
- Do not invent author names, years, titles, pages or DOIs that are not in your notes.
To copy
Put my reference list into the stated citation style. Do not invent author names, years, titles, places, publishers, pages, URLs or DOIs that are not in my notes. Reference list: [paste list] Desired style: [name or example] Text with short citations, if I paste one: [text or: none] Further constraints: [constraints] Check and write: 1. Each entry in the named style, only with the fields that are present. If a field is missing, leave a visible gap or mark it, instead of guessing. 2. Inconsistent spellings in the data on hand as a note, not as a silent change, unless I stated a rule. 3. Adjust short citations in a pasted text only if I asked for that, and only as far as the list supports them. Do not insert new citations. 4. Duplicate entries or contradictory facts about the same work as a check note. 5. No statement on the scholarly quality of the sources and no legal guidance on citation. 6. Open questions: which entries stay incomplete and which facts I still need to supply. Output: standardised list, flagged gaps, notes on conflicts, open questions. No invented data.
