Habe zu meinem kurzen Thread (https://fedihum.org/@jomla/115168267720681186) gestern mal einen Blogpost verfasst:
**Ein Markdown-Plädoyer**

Finde es schwer das konkret zu Greifen und in Worte…
FeDiHumBeginning to lose my mind again about #TeXLaTeX #BibLaTeX #BibTeX #Zotero fuckery.
Zotero puts the "Extra" field from the GUI into the `annotation` field. This is happily ignored by biblatex. The quest begins, how to convince biblatex to *please* display my note on this preprint somewhere. All my attempts involving AtEveryBibItem or DeclareSourceMap pretty much in vain. LaTeX is so incredibly brilliant, but simple stuff like this can really kill you. Feels like #NixOS
... und zur Hölle: Warum nicht längst #Markdown und #BibTex -Pflicht bei Einreichungen und #Pandoc -Pipelines für die Weiterverarbeitung?
... und ja, das Thema geht auch über Wissenschaft hinaus, aber hier nervt's mich besonders.
... und ja, hässliche "das nutzen nur Professionals" #UI mit grottiger #UX zählt da auch zu.

Allright, good morning. Dear science and writers bubble, how do you deal with local toolchains for managing your library and archives?
I tried Zotero and had a look - *ugh* it requires cloud syncing for metadata and webdav for storage (or pay for it).
Is is really a combination of a local bibtex file in combination with archivebox?
Any feedback is highly appreciated! (boosting as well).

#Literatur-daten als #bibtex und #cas-nr wären gut zu standardisieren
Working on a scientific paper and need to quickly insert a citation?
If you’ve used #JabRef before, you might know the “push to application” feature. Now, JabRef supports cite-as-you-write (CAYW)! (Also known as “cite while you write”)
In #TeXstudio, press c three times to open the citation dialog—no plugin needed.

Big thanks to @phlp for implementing this!

Hello, I’m Philip, one of the Google Summer of Code…
JabRef’s BlogOn my way back from the Franco-German summer school on “Open(ing) Science? Digital Humanities in Area Studies” co-organised by @kschluetter and @evaommert in #Leipzig. Thank you so much for bringing together such a great community of scholars working in and on languages and scripts beyond the Global North. Also a huge thanks for letting me run a workshop on plain-text editing and minimal computing!
Convenience update in JabRef: When fetching data via DOI, the most plausible year and entry type are now auto-selected.
Smarter defaults, less cleanup!

GitHubJabRef has a new dialog for adding entries. It even automatically fills in the identifier from the clipboard. For the lazy people, one can also parse reference texts directly using AI.

A question to the academic #HiveMind:
We are currently developing an extension to #ConfTool that will allow for the export of conference programmes as #BibTeX / #BibLaTeX . What would be your entry type of choice for otherwise unpublished conference presentations, posters etc.?
If you opt for “something else“, please provide your preference in a reply. Any comments are more than welcome.
Curious about this, but please add a link to the post! (Also for later reference, when that post might not be at the top of your blog's landing page anymore.)
I'd recommend giving #Quarto a spin as well. It's also based on #Markdown + #BibTex, but is designed for academic long-form writing (e.g. with the "book" format).
I sent @PLOS a mail with a fix for their #BibTeX style so that @misc entries (e.g. preprints) include a DOI (if any).
I always find it super frustrating when looking through a references list, then finding no DOI for an entry, when there definitely exists one - you see that the journal's bibliography style ignores DOIs for anything but @article etc. Don't really understand why.
Haven't had much success with other journals in this regard. We'll see if #PLOS is better
Make #JabKit permanently available:
1. Install jbang: https://www.jbang.dev/download/
2. Execute "jbang app install jabkit@jabref"
Then, you can run "jabkit --help" and more.
