Hi, I've never thought of this before, but it would be great if users cited JabRef where relevant.
I'm not into the details of how it should be cited, but I have no objection to the suggestions here. Note that it should be http://jabref.sourceforge.net, not .org. Regarding city and country, I don't think it makes much sense to include it since the development is decentralized. @Manual{JabRef_software, title = {JabRef}, author = {{JabRef Development Team}}, organization = {JabRef Development Team}, year = {2010}, url = {http://jabref.sourceforge.net}, } Morten On 3 December 2010 18:39, Peters Gj (PSYCHOLOGY) <[email protected]> wrote: > Dear Frédéric, Rainer, et al., > > Thank you for your reactions! > > I think that providing some guidelines of the JabRef website would be wise > indeed.
