But how should other people cite your work? This is a recurring problem for me and I have created a developmental tool maybe similar to Zotero for obtaining bibtex from many random links. When I post pdf "tech reports", for example, https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Mike_Marchywka I try to include human AND machine readable bibtex. If you look at any of my recent pdf files there is always a suggsted version at the end although I'm not sure if Zotero or Toobib can find that. In the extended information I include bibtex info but have not found a well accepted or commonly used way to do this ( tug.org website in particular does not seem to have an easy way to cite their works unless you know about their lookup -table page ) Its not hard to do this with latex and I can contribute the few lines I use to do it if anyone wants it. For example, exifutil -list covidup.pdf ExifTool Version Number : 11.75 File Name : covidup.pdf Directory : .
