Citeline seems like a great project (even before its days as Citeline)
but unfortunately I have never found a good way to make the required
Bibtex input. What is the best way of doing this. Perhaps someone can
help me if I describe what I have tried so far:
(1) Endnote --> Bibtex natively.
Result
###Citeline Import Error#####
(2) Endnote --> Bibtex *but* used the recommendations on the Citeline
Website
(a) Added random text to the label field of each Ref
(b) Modified the Bibtex export style in EN by removing
the "|"
symbols around each year field.
Result
###Citeline Import Error#####
(3) WebofScience --> online export -->Bibtex
###Citeline Import Error#####
(4) JabRef --> saves natively as .bib
###Citeline Import Error#####
Is Citeline finicky about a particular Bibtex format? I can believe
that EN produces ill formatted bibtex files but how can it be that all
these various independent components produce bad bibtex?
I could post my detailed errors if that helps (but anyways the online
errors produced by Citeline are somewhat minimalistic)
As a positive there was one method that *did* work! This was by using
the "save as bibtex" feature in Google Scholar. Unfortunately that
doesn't always work. The Citeline tool is beautiful but I wish it were
easier to feed data into it.
Or maybe I am just doing something wrong!
Any tips are greatly appreciated! What's the best way to convert say
a Scifinder / WebofScience search-generated list-of-refs into
something that Citeline will accept?
