Re: [ESPResSo-devel] Citations

[Axel Arnold]

Hi all,

after some discussion with Olaf, we came to the following solution to 
make sure that algorithms get cited.

- we put them on our webpage as suggested

- we have a separate bibtex-file (doc/ug/citations.bib), where you can 
add references that people should cite. Of course, the bibtex-keys in 
this file should be pretty, as well as the entries, so ICPies, please 
don't just copy and paste our bib. In particular, remove timestamp and 
owner entries.

- to get the necessary attention, add your citation to the UG, directly 
at the syntax description of the method. There is a simple environment 
to do this, put it at the beginning of the section:

\begin{citebox}
  Please cite~\citewbibkey{adress} when using AdResS.
\end{citebox}

citewbibkey will output also the bibtex key, so that it is easy to find 
the reference in doc/ug/citations.bib.

Of course, you can not do that, but don't complain if you don't get 
cited. At the moment, this is fairly biased towards Christoph and me, so 
correct this :-).

Cheers,
Axel
