Errors in the Format

For an entry to be added to the BibTeX data base all the required fields have to be entered and certain format rules need to be followed. We check the following items:
  • the key needs to follow the given format, for example Gander:2000:OSM. No blanks or backslash (like \'e) are allowed
  • names need to be separated by the word 'and' and not by a comma
  • first names should not be abreviated. A good way to find the full name is to use google. If you really can not find the full first name, then use correctly abreviated forms of the first name, including the '.'
Please use the <Back> button in your browser to go back to the entry form and add the missing information or correct the required fields. If your entry is correct but does not pass this test, please contact mgander@math.mcgill.ca
