Example
To cite a resource use the form:
Cite(label, [description, [keywords]])
For example,
A classic paper on software projects is Fred Brooks' No Silver Bullet [[Cite(brooks1995,author=Fred P. Brooks\, Jr., title=The Mythical Man-Month: Essays on Software Engineering, edition=Anniversary Edition,institution=University of North Carolina,year=1995,publisher=Addison-Wesley,isbn=ISBN 0-201-83595-9,pages=179-203, url=http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Mythical_Man-Month)]]. I would also recommend reading Eric Sink's Career Calculus [[Cite(sink2003,reftype=electronic,author=Eric Sink,title=Career Calculus,url=http://www.ericsink.com/ Career_Calculus.html,year=2003,month=Aug,day=19)]] and Paul Graham's Great Hackers [[Cite(graham2004, reftype=electronic,author=Paul Graham,title=Great Hackers,url=http://www.paulgraham.com/gh.html,month=Jul,year=2004)]]. If you are more interested in patents, try Nikola Tesla's first "Free Energy" patent [[Cite(tesla1901,reftype=patent, assignee=Nikola Tesla,address=New York\, NY,number=685957,title=Apparatus for the Utilization of Radiant Energy,day=5,month=Nov,year=1901,dayfiled=21,monthfiled=Mar,yearfiled=1901,nationality=United States, url=http://www.google.com/patents?id=YitoAAAAEBAJ)]].
You can cite the same reference more then once:
Some stuff [[Cite(cite,Citation plugin,url=http://trac-hacks.org/wiki/CiteMacro)]] and then again [[Cite(cite)]] using only the label.
Finally, at the bottom of the page generate the references:
[[Cite(references)]]
With back links, and a smaller heading.
[[Cite(references,h=2,backref=true)]]
The list of keywords was obtained from IEEEexample.bib,
author, assignee, nationality, editor, title, intype, booktitle, edition, series, journal, volume, number, organization, institution, publisher, school, language, address, url, howpublished, dayfiled, monthfiled, yearfiled, day, month, year, chapter, volume, paper, type, revision, pages, note, key
To create a BibTeX bibliography with a 4 space indentation.
[[Cite(bibtex,indent=4,style=background: #eee; border: 1px solid black; padding: 10px;)]]
Simply copy & paste the rendered output into your bibliography file.
Here's a screen shot of the example code's rendered output.
Possible Improvements
- More intelligent reference creation, a patent reference should look different from an article in a journal. Order of keywords spring to mind.
- Remove the commas in dates.
